mousecat88 2,281 Posted July 23, 2019 I consider this my biggest success. Not the weight loss. But the fact that I am now pursuing my personal trainer certifications with a specialty in obesity. I want to specifically work with bariatric patients who may struggle to exercise, and may rely on the surgery to just help with diet when it should be a comprehensive lifestyle change. I am so excited that I may someday make a difference to even just one person. One person that I was just not even a year ago. This surgery has changed not only my weight, but my mentality and my life. I want to pay it forward.

ValerieInMexico 162 Posted July 24, 2019 Fantastic! My personal trainer, a Mom of 3, was 240 pounds after he third. She worked very hard to get it off and she is an inspiration to me. I am sure you will be for your clients as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
