My name is Felipe Puente Jr
Hispanic Male just turned 46 on May 14 2018. I am a husband who married my best friend after 12 years of friendship. Now married for 18 years. We are proud parents to a amazing son who is 15 years old. i found out about this site from my surgeon. And i see there's so much here for all who are considering WLS. I have been overweight pretty much all my adult life. food was my fix when ever i felt depressed etc. I am now diagnosed as Morbid Obese with Type 2 diabetes and w diabetic neuropathy also with Hypertension, Gerd, Sleep Apnea ect the list is long and so is the meds i take. My health had become this way because of the lack of physical activity. And i knew i needed a change and with my new insurance it was a must. After two hospital stays from Abscess and cellulitis & four surgeries I had enough. And wonderful nurse shared with me about the WLS and how it changed her life. I'm ready my surgery date is June 28th
I welcome any questions and all support
