My life changed
dramatically.
All my friends called me "Big Dan"
and I took that as a compliment because I thought I was big and healthy,
but I wasn't.
I was diabetic,
and diabetes had already
caused permanent damage to my feet and my
eyes. I was also overweight. I was morbidly obese by definition.
I decided that
I needed a solution, and
bariatric surgery was that solution.
I lost
diabetes.
I lost high blood pressure.
I lost arthritis.
I would like to say
bariatric surgery is a losing experience
because I lost so many problems.
I threw away a drawer full of
daily prescriptions.
I can buy clothes anywhere.
At age fifty five,
I found out it's not too late to change your life.
