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

I have always been overweight even as a child, then i evened out ate the age of 14 and was at a healthy weight until I got pregnant with my first child at 16, 5 children and 27 years later here I am still struggling, I've tried Weight Watchers, Atkins, slim fast, Phentermine, you name it, I tried it. I've never been able to keep off any weight that I had lost.

Not being or feeling healthy.
