Obesity & Me

Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.

I was a food addict. I never have had self control when it came to food or shopping! I was miserable, failed so many diets and at 46 decided ds surgery would fix my weight struggle.

What was (is) the worst thing about being overweight?

just the misery of not being able to have the energy or stamina to keep up with life. poor self esteem, depression and i truly felt a prejudice.

If you have had weight loss surgery already, what things do you most enjoy doing now that you weren't able to do before?

well grabbing a size small instead of a size 22 is top on my list! plane rides are a bliss now. more self esteem.
