My Story

I am 37 years old and have 2 children.  Matthew is 5 years old and Sarah is 3.  I would love to one day to have the energy to play with them.  I have been overweight most of my life and I want to set a good example on my children. 

12/08/2006  I had my consult with Dr. Overcash yesterday.  I decided to have the RNY after talking with him.  I am getting all my paper work ready.  We can not send for approval until January 1st.  I start on United Healthcare on the 1st.  As far as I can see I should be approved.  I weigh 236 and am 5' 3".  I am anxious to get started.

1/24/2007 Open RNY with Dr. Overcash, everything went really well.  Less pain than I expected. 

1/29/2007  Besides having a little difficulty getting up and down I have been feeling suprisingly good.

3/12/07  It has been one week since I've seen Dr. O I lost 4 lbs this week.  Now that I am not trying to eat extra protein I seem to be lose more weight.  I am down to 200lbs in 7weeks.  I am expected to lose 40lbs. by my next visit in 3 months, cross your fingers. 

 8/1/07 I am down almost 70lbs.  I am wearing a size 10.  Yeah me.

12/22/07  I weight 155lbs.  which is Dr. Overcash's goal.  I feel I could lose 10 - 15lbs.  I am very happy where I am now.
