Hi, I’m Linda. Welcome. This site & community is for people (and those who love you) seeking information about multiple therapeutic interventions to address Obesity.

 My passion is supporting folks in their consideration of possibilities for the treatment of Obesity. I’m here to guide you as you define the right choice for you in your Obesity recovery.


This is not a contest, nor a war on Obesity.

Obesity treatment has become a contest like a football game — for the winning treatment. Much more effective to consider it a toolkit with many tools, and individualize the selection.
The goal is to regain health including weight loss. ~ Sara Stein M.D.

In War, there are two choices. Winners and losers. If you flourish in that kind of framework, there are many places to find that message. This is not one of them. I believe we can all thrive within and on our own unique paths.
Time for Unity, Love, and Playful Perspective.
Time to cease the bickering and disrespect.
Everyone’s road to wellness is different, what’s important is to ease on down your own.
This place is a starting point for those interested in a path of collaboration and strategies to move towards wellness and reverse the effects of Obesity
I’m here to guide you as you define the right choice for you in your Obesity recovery. My choice was surgery, it might not be right for you. My business is not to sell you on surgery.

My business is to guide you as you define the right choice for you in your Obesity recovery.

My thirteen word take on what weight loss surgery is like for me:
Balancing love of food with the reality of having a lemon-sized stomach.

This was my unique choice, and the path I took.

All choices are welcome here.

Oh – you want to know a bit more about me? Love the curious types.
Restless gypsy at heart
– with house in the ‘burbs and suitcase at the ready. Love to travel, check out restaurants, and explore places. More fun to travel when you have a place to come back to – even if it’s simply to rest up between trips. Don’t you agree?

Guilty pleasures : Sci-Fi – I’m a Star Trek fan but I’ll give anything on Netflix a try. At times, I break into spontaneous dancing. I’ve made peace with it, really.
