FINALLY! I had surgery on July 20, 2009 this was a dream come true!! I wanted this surgery for the past two years and wasn't having positives results due to insurance. It has been a struggle for me over the past 15 years  being overweight.  I have two girlfriends who had the surgery as well which is the best for me for support reasons.  Having a few overweight friends it seemed like all we talked about was food and where we going to eat today?  what your cooking? any left overs? Then we would get in to our " overweight conversation " you know starting monday we will start this kind of diet or go to this gym and we will walk at the track well MOnday became tuesday and wed.  ect. I started gaining weight right out of high school every year 10-20 lbs. I never saw it until my energy level started going down and starting having weird feelings. I went to dr. they said to loose weight easier said then done. I had blood work and testing and was told I have PCOS, Diebetes, and High Cholestroel. I want to have children and it would be impossible to have any if my life don't get back on track and so thats where the surgery comes in. I am 34 years old which is still young enough to find myself again. I  had all my pre-op done in two months and had the date right after that. Here is a new begining of a new relationship with myself. Today is my one week anniversay date July 27, 2009 its not going to be easy the first few but it will get better!
