My interview in the Union Tribune ran today. I can't believe what the band has done for me.

Super article! I love your 18th birthday party picture - you look SO happy and comfortable with yourself. Thanks for participating in this article; I hope that it helps other people realize the benefits of WLS for younger people. I wish I could have had the opportunity when I was in high school in the 1960s - but I'm so grateful to have it now. Your whole life is going to be so much better for having done this for yourself! Congratulations!!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
