sept.07  First of all let me say that I am new to this. I have been a lurker for about 2 years now. I just recently made my first post and was so grateful for the responses. I must say I have probably been missing out on alot of support. 
   A little about myself. I ofcourse have been overweight my whole life. Not morbidly obese, but overweight. The road to being morbidly obese started when I was in my early 20's then I had my first child at 25 that put me at 195 (remember I am 5', practically a midget. )LOL Well then 10 months later I am pregnant w/ my second child. Yeah that was planned. Well that ofcourse pushed me over the 200lb mark. Then the real battle began. Like I said I have struggled with my weight my whole life lose 20 gain 30 lose 30 gain 40 and so on. My highest weight ever was 225 I think. Could have been more I didnt weigh myself for years. Now I can't go a day without getting on. Go figure. Anyway, to make a long story short at the age of 36, 225lbs and a BMI of 41 I decided to have Gastric bypass. And now the real journey begins.
