Hi! I'm Gata. I'm a performer who, until coronavirus, had been doing regular shows. They were becoming increasingly difficult for me due to my weight, and I wasn't feeling my best. I don't think my frame was meant to carry this much weight!
I didn't really have much of an emotional relationship with food, but I appreciate good tastes and a variety of them. Between depression, pregnancy, thyroid issues, and inactivity, the pounds crept up on me! After having backaches and achy feet just walking around, and when I couldn't even stand on my feet for long without my back cursing me out, I finally decided enough was enough.
I found Bariatric Pal through Google and I also noticed it on the suggested links that my surgeon's office gave me. I decided to get the gastric sleeve after a tonne of research and asking people who had joined The Order of the Sleeve. They all said how it was an excellent tool for weight loss... so, after much thought, I went for a consultation.
