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

My weight loss battle was very emotional prior to making my decision on wls.

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

The worst thing was the risk of being diabetic and not being able to do ALOT of things with my child I wanted to be able to live as long as God had plans for me to. I refuse to die and be selfish to myself and child just because I wanted to be greedy. I WENT INTO DEEP DEPRESSION that made me gain tons of weight. I'm a young mother seeking a new me 4me sometime ppl see this as a easy way out but it's not its very challenging and hard. I lost 40 pounds before surgery which I was proud of.

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

I've had wls on Thursday jun.27.2013 I really don't enjoy much right now I'm only 3days out I have pain in my belly. Wish it would go away but hey can't rush things. However I'm ready for the journey
