My Story

My story is like most of ya'll. I had  a pretty normal childhood..adulthood..so to speak. But when I turned 30..my weight gaining started in full force..but I was also going thru a divorce, working 40 plus hour weeks,and going to college fulltime too. I think food became my Best Friend!!!! I went from weighing about 135 to 217 in a matter of 6 months. But like most people whom hold their weigh well ..thought I don't look that bad and I really love my food. Stayed there and meet my second husband whom thought I was soooo beautiful!!! Silly Man.. But DAMn I love him more then anything.Totally relaxed at 217.... Until 1 year into my marriage I started packing on the weight .. at least a pound or two daily. In less than 3 months I was up to 280. I went to my PCP and after several tests was told I had Diabetes, High Blood pressure, High Cholestrol..WOW!!! Until this day the diabetes is uncontrollable . I take 4 injections daily plus 6 pills. Two high blood pressue pills, and one high cholestrol pill..... After two years of dieting to all accounts no weight lost. I finally decided to take back my life!!!!! I know WLS is ONLY a Tool, but something better than nothing. And here is my true feeling on this whole situation.. If I die from complications from the surgery ..then at least I die trying to improve the quality of my life. Because in all honest with these conditions..how long would I live without it ???
