This is the story of my return. My name is Anna. I am 42 years old. For many years, I lived with excess weight. Every day was a struggle—with the mirror, with food, with my own thoughts.

I tried everything:

• diets
• teas promising “minus 10 kg in one week”
• workouts.

But every time, the weight came back. Along with it came disappointment, fatigue, shortness of breath, and insecurities.

Until one day, my friend told me: 👉 “Maybe this isn’t just about willpower — maybe you should talk to a doctor.”

That’s how I ended up at Vardanants.
📍 There, they listened, examined, and explained: Excess weight can be the result of a health issue — and it can be treated.

I underwent bariatric surgery (stomach reduction). Laparoscopic. Fast. Under the supervision of a multidisciplinary team.

7 months later—minus 35 kg.

But the most important thing wasn’t the number on the scale. The important thing was that I fell in love with myself again. I can play with my son. I look in the mirror with peace of mind. And I cried when, for the first time in many years, I wore a dress and felt beautiful and confident.
