Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I THINK AT FIRST I DIDN'T REALIZE HOW MUCH WEIGHT I HAD GAINED. IT IS HARD TO ADMIT THE PROBLEM WHEN YOU REALLY DON'T THINK ONE EXISTS. I NEVER WOULD GO ON THE SCALE AT DOCTOR APPOINTMENTS OR WEIGH MYSELF ART HOME I THINK I WAS IN DENIAL.

    Congrats On you're surgery!! It's hard at first but it is so worth it. And soon you will see ur scale dropping numbers and its the best feeling in the world very worth all you had to go through to get this surgery.

    Congratulations on being a "loser!" It is a real blast on this side. Bumpy at first, but man oh man. When you see that scale going down and you start to reach some of your goals (even silly ones) it is crazy! The hardest part is over - you had the guts (no pun intended) to do something about your weight! I hope your recovery is smooth and fast!

Hello, My name is Tammy. I am 32 year old married mother of three lovely girls. I have been slightly overweight growing up but didn't have such a problem with it until after having children. Who knew!
So here we are. I am 270 lbs and looking to lose around 100-110. That is my nutritionist goal. I think it is realisitc. I probably will want to go lower after I reach that goal, and I am assuming I will. I am here for support just like many other people. I don't really have many people in my life that know what I am going through. Thanks for listening.

Recenlty been having problems with severe iron deficency and extremely low hemoglobin. Going to a specialist hope it helps get my health back on track. Hope everyone is good. Take Care!

Sundress update
on March 31, 2009 8:32 pm
I FINALLY got my new dress this morning. And it fit!!! It has alot of room in the front which is good because my tummy ain't flat I wore all day today around town and had a few compliments! I will( I swear) post some pics form our trip to vegas this weekend. The bra was a different story, too small. So I will return it this weekend. I can not wear the dress without a bra and the straps are spaghetti straps so time to shop! Either way I am very excited to have something colorful and femine in my in my closet it has been a long time.

A Sundress! FOR MEEEE!!!
on March 23, 2009 9:27 pm
 I just ordered this sundress through OLDNAVY.COM for only 25.00! I have not purchased a dress like this in over 10 years. One reason is that I am not a very femine type of person but also I have alot of insecurites with my body and the more fabric the better. Time to come out of my shell a little. I hope to get it before I go to Vegas so I can wear it out there and of course I had to get a new bra with clear straps otherwise the girls would be dragging the floor!!! By the way it is a size 16, YEAH!!!

This website will calculate each month after WLS and tell you approximately how much weight you could have/should have lost. Pretty cool.
