“I struggled with my weight my whole life, and after each of my kiddos – I put more and more weight on and was never able to get it off. I spent almost 20 years raising four kids and putting myself on the back burner. Making the decision to have bariatric surgery in October of 2021 was the best thing I have ever done for myself.
A year later I am down 121 pounds and I […]

Story Highlights
Successful Weight Management after weight loss surgery requires you to develop a mindset and a philosophy about your relationship to food, about what to eat, what not to eat as often by using moderation, establishing self control boundaries, becoming more mindful and aware of food and stress triggers, continuing to educate yourself, finding the value in daily exercise. This also includes your attitude towards yourself and the world around you. Recognize the process where you have to work with yourself to get from the state you’re in, to a state where you wanna be. You may have entered into this process with the goal of being thinner in the same way you may buy a lottery ticket to be wealthier, but what you really want is a change of state. You want a change in how you feel, how you live.
