But starting as early as high school, I started having problems with high blood pressure, and it was really a wake-up call. I needed to do something. I'd want to go out and hike with my friends, play ultimate frisbee, run. And I just couldn't keep up. I couldn't do the things they were doing, so I looked into bariatric surgery. I came to the Temple Bariatric Program. Sat in on a meeting, did some more research, and decided it was something I wanted to pursue. It was an evidence-based, clinical tool for me to lose the weight I needed to lose to be healthy in a way that I felt was sustainable. So I had a sleeve gastrectomy, and it was a minimally invasive surgery. And the recovery was significantly faster and easier than I thought it was going to be. I was in the hospital for one night. I think the aspect of the team was something that was very unique to my bariatric surgery experience. The fact that there was a surgeon, a dietician, all rooting for you, holding you accountable, but showing you how to be successful. After surgery, the weight started coming off very quickly. It was very fast results. And it was amazing. I used to be 350 pounds. And now I am 235. It wasn't a magic fix. I still have to do the work. But I also look at the other metrics of being healthy. I'm not on any blood pressure medication. My lab work looks good. I kind of grew up around running. Since surgery, I've completed three more half marathons, and it's so liberating to not be held back by anything. The Temple Bariatric Surgery Program has given me the tools to lead a long, healthy, and happy life.
