Linda shares how her life has been altered since gastric bypass surgery.

Linda:
I would say that people who would not even bother even looking my way are now going out of their way to come over and say hello. Even co-workers, friends that I have known forever, people that I had just met that wouldn’t remember my name now somehow know where I am, what I am doing. It’s a very drastic change.

Guys are definitely approaching me that would not have approached me before. Guys that I was interested in before that would not even think of ever asking me out are now asking me out. Guys’ families that I was just friends with are now wondering what’s happening with us and kind of pushing for, you know, for more than friendship. So it’s not just guys, it’s women, it’s family members; it’s just all around.
