I have been obese for the past decade. I decided to have the surgery after years of weight loss attempts. Five years ago I was able to lose 50 pounds on weight watchers but gained it back after being in the hospital. I consider WLS a permanent tool that will help me lose the weight for good. I know this is right for me and will have positive results on my health and quality of life. I've overcome a lot of adversity and recently completed my masters degree. I look forward to the day that my outward appearance matches the true me inside :)
