Well I'm a 28 year old woman who has suffers from being overweight, having asthma and high blood pressure from the age of nine. About a year ago I was having some severe severe back pain and didn't know why? I had an x-ray and MRI done and found out that I have two herniated disc in my lower back. I don't know how that happened don't know why but I was talking to my doctor and he suggested it was from me being Overweight. Also from carrying all of my weight up top on my belly pulling down on my lower back. I really didn't want to have work done on my back so I asked the doctor for suggestions and he suggested that I go to a bariatric seminar which I did back in November 2013. So here I am all postop five days out of surgery and feeling a little in pain but I'm okay I can get through it but I believe this is the right path that I need to take it also make me a healthier person for a better life for me for my family.
