Schools Fighting Childhood Obesity

The facts have been presented so many times that you might wonder if anyone is listening. Our children are at risk. They are overweight and becoming obese at an alarming rate, and the forecast for the future is not good. The positive news is that there are now schools fighting childhood obesity. Childhood obesity has […]

Belly Fat More Dangerous than Obesity

It always scares me when I read about the health risks of abdominal obesity, also known as central obesity. Simply put, belly fat is more dangerous than obesity. Although I am no longer obese — having lost weight from gastric bypass surgery, healthful lifestyle changes, and bariatric plastic surgery – new studies are showing that […]

Plastic Surgery with Dr. Joseph F. Capella

This is part 1 of My Bariatric Life plastic surgery with Dr. Joseph F. Capella, Capella Plastic Surgery, Ramsey NJ. Choosing Dr. Joseph F. Capella I had been contemplating body contouring plastic surgery with Dr. Joseph F. Capella since losing more than 100 pounds from gastric bypass surgery in 2003. I’d expected my flesh would shrink with the weight loss as […]

Plus Sized Gyms for Exercise

Curves – One of the Friendly Plus Size Gyms in the US After my weight-loss surgery in 2003, most of the gals in my support group went to Curves. At that time, it was one of the few friendly plus sized gyms in the nation. Curves is an exercise club founded in Harlingen, Texas that is restricted to […]

Is Bariatric Surgery Right for Me?

The average woman wouldn’t mind shedding a pound or two, it is all a part of what it is to be a woman, right?  I cram my feet into 3 inch heels, spend a good hour on hair and make-up, and go through at least two different ensemble choices before I will even walk out the front […]

Body Image after Weight Loss

I do not know for certain if the United States is a country made of mirrors, but I sometimes suspect it might be. I also suspect that there is no person living in this country who can actually pass by one of these mirrors without taking in his or her reflection — especially the body […]

Bad Eating Habits that Cause Weight Gain

Do you exhibit the following bad eating habits that cause weight gain after bariatric surgery? If the answer to these questions keeps coming up yes, you may want to hit the reset button. Your eating habits are self-defeating, and that glint you spy from the corner of your eye is your relapse. Do you graze? That is, do […]

My Gastric Bypass Story

My Gastric Bypass Journey Why? I looked into bariatric surgery because my life had become out of control. I had ballooned to morbid obesity and I had been recently diagnosed with, and hospitalized for, diabetes type 2 and hypertension. My triglycerides were bad; my cholesterol was worse. They had been that way, in fact, for a […]

OA Overeaters Anonymous after Surgery

My experience with my bariatric surgeon’s support group is that it was useful in preparing me pre-surgery and for a short-term post-op in managing my new anatomy. However, it did little to educate me on how to maintain permanent weight loss. My surgeon told me, “I do the surgery. The rest is up to you.” So, […]

Life Well-Lived after Weight-Loss Surgery

I’ve led a well-lived life after weight-loss surgery in 2003. Prior to that, when I was morbidly obese, I led a life half-lived. One might say I am making up for lost time. Years ago I came to the realization that my life is the dash between the date I was born and the date I die. […]

True Love after Weight Loss

Love is the deepest and most fulfilling connection to the world. Yet it is sadly ironic that most of us don’t know what love is. This is the story of how I found true love after weight loss. Storybook Love I grew up with a romanticized notion of love: One day my prince would come […]
