Shannon Shares When She Knew She Needed Gastric Bypass Surgery (VIDEO)

Shannon:

Everything on my body ached--my knees, my ankles, my back--and I work retail so I am on my feet all day. And it was pretty much time where it was like, “You’re going to get sick and you’re going to end up dying, or you’re going to fix this.” So that’s what I decided.

I started doing some research on the Internet and got in touch with Dr. Dahiya and went good after that.
