My Bariatric Life

(Profile)
In 2003, I made a decision that would forever change my life. Since that time, I have been following a program of lifetime obesity disease management to sustain long term weight loss. It began with bariatric (weight loss) surgery followed by changing the way I eat, mild exercising, and attending a support group (NOT my surgeon's support group).
