December-update on the interview

Gosh where shall I start? I was given the opportunity to represent my bariatric surgeon and his facility by having an interview and be photographed by photographer Bob Cascerelli. Not sure how to spell his name but sounds something like that. This all transpired on December 4th.

You Wanna Interview Me?

OMG! Let me tell you what transpired yesterday! So I received a call from my surgeon's nurse at home last night.

I could not stand to smell it as I brought it up to my mouth

My Weight Loss Journey

Hi, I had my sleeve surgery on August 6th, 2012. I actually tried to get the lap band back in 2006 but due to insurance regulations and morbidity-lacking qualifications, I was unsuccessful back in 2006. Jump forward a couple of years to 2012 and I finally had the right insurance and actually had some morbidities that helped me get the desired surgery.
