Before weight loss surgery, everyday activities were hard. I have three very active kids. I wasn’t able to be an involved mom. I couldn’t run and play with them. I would be out of breath just by walking. My biggest frustration was not being able to do normal daily activities without getting exhausted.

I have been considering weight loss surgery for the last five years. I kept putting it off because I would say that I could lose the weight by myself, but that never happened. I eventually decided to take charge of my life and get healthy, not only for myself but also for I wanted to be around and active with my children.

Working with the Alabama Surgical Associates and Dr. Doucette was amazing. I live out of state, but that didn’t change the level of care that I received. Throughout the whole process, everyone was so helpful and nice!

I love being involved. I feel like I can finally live my life at 34 years old. I can actually run and play with my children, work out at a gym weekly, and genuinely enjoy my life!
