From Amanda:

"For most of my life, I brushed off the comments about my weight-until my doctor told me I was pre-diabetic. That was my wake-up call. At first, I resisted the idea of weight loss surgery, but eventually, I saw it for what it truly is: a tool, not a solution. The hardest part wasn't the surgery itself—it was everything after. Learning how to properly portion my meals, fuel my body with the right nutrition, and commit to a new lifestyle was the real challenge. Some friends said I took the 'easy way out,' but they don't see the daily effort it takes to keep the weight off and stay healthy. This journey has been about more than just losing weight; it's been about taking control of my health and my future."
