This is not going to be easy and I needed to prepare for a lifestyle change. I remember him saying something like there is no magic pill and you are going to get out of it what you put into it. And to my surprise He was very respectful and I could tell that he really enjoyed helping people change their lives. I decided to lay it all out on the table and see what his reaction was. His first real question (after the initial pleasantries) was what surgery are you looking at and why? At this point I was faced with a choice, to continue to mask how I really felt or come clean and get help. Duperier, and I must say his straight forward attitude caught me off guard a little. In August of 2014 I had my first consultation with Dr. Honestly sitting here typing this up I can’t help but feel little humble and excited to share the next part of my journey with you. I could not stand and put my belt in my jeans because I lacked the flexibility to reach around and loop it through my pants. I always needed and extension for the seat belt. I could not fit comfortably in an airplane seat. I always wondered what they thought about me. I joked about my weight in front of friends before they got the chance, in my mind it seemed less painful but it wasn’t. It was a cycle that brought on depression to the point I did not like taking family photos or be in front of my own wife with my shirt off. It seemed like every time I dieted, I would lose 20lbs and gain back 30. This resulted in failed diets, poor self-esteem and just more weight gain. I was of the mindset that I could do it on my own without any help. I have been struggling with my weight for over 20 years now at the age of 42 I was dealing with High Blood Pressure, Sleep Disorder, Hurting joints, fatigue on top of being the heaviest I have ever been at approx.
