Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I'm your classic yoyo dieter with a twist. To help with my weight gain I am insulin reisistant which makes me gain weight and not have any control. The trick to control the insulin is to take the apropriate meds, but for the meds to work you need to only weigh so much. Once my weight went down the meds started working.

    When feeling blue or WHATEVER about your “slow” weight loss or a plateau, remember these wise words whispered by Confucius – “It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.” Be patient and celebrate your accomplishments so far! You didn’t put it on over night, it won’t come off over night (DARN IT!)… RNY 10/31/03 257/140 - GOAL!!! Good luck!

I'm not exactlly breaking any barriers with weight loss right now.  I weigh 189 currently but my weight loss has slowed to a stumbling crawl.  I figure if I can just get another 20 off I will be happy, but who knows?  I got my hair cut to try and cover up how thin it's gotten.  I have lost almost half of it.  It's growing back but it fell out faster.  I figured some layers and bangs might help out a little.  We'll see!

Well it looks like OH is changing again!  I'm still struggling with my weight loss but hopefully it will start moving again sometime soon!  I am going to try and get pictures up sometime soon!
