Obesity & Me

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

Weight control has always been out of my hands. I have felt helpless, hopeless, and some other "less's." I have been classified as obese since ii was a toddler. My obesity was not from overeating. The doctors finally discovered what was making me gain weight 1 year ago...Now, there's hope!

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

I can't live my life to the fullest. I feel like I'm held hostage to my own body.

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

My surgery date is Feb. 6th!!!
