Rosa describes how she feels when she looks in the mirror since having gastric bypass surgery.

Rosa:
When I see myself in the mirror, I cannot believe it. I am telling you, it’s like I look at old pictures and it’s like, I never remembered looking myself that heavy, but now, it’s like, I can’t believe I am this skinny and I can wear this kind of clothes. And I feel like my motivation is up the roof, and I look and feel younger than what I really am. I never act my age before when I was overweight. I always looked and felt older than what I actually was, and now it’s the opposite. I feel younger.
