Coming from a family that suffers from depression and anxiety, i found comfort in food all my life. I ate till i reached 400 pounds and was in my early 30s. I hated that i would not stop eating. And would hate socializing because everywhere i went people would be like "wow shes so fat .but shes so pretty.. if she would only lose the weight!" Like its that simple eh? Or that now since i cant lose the weight, im no longer beautiful? Long story short... i got tired of waking up every morning carrying the weight (back, knees were always hurting. And i got tired of the emotional pain of being the pretty but fat girl. I talked to my college philosophy teacher who became a good friend and she motivated me to face my fears of surgery. I called your office and everything else was taken care by u guys. So many things happened once i lost my weight such as i was able to bring 2 more babies into the world which i could not get pregnant before surgery. This surgery was the best decision i made although the scariest...

This surgery didn’t just change my weight — it changed my life.
