I've always had weight issues, but it has never gotten to the point that I'm at now. I've always been able to loose the weight before but after my second child I just hadn't been able to do it. I've taken the diet pills, done the low fat diet thing, exercised, Weight Watchers, etc..... I have a 14 year old and 11 year old daughters. I was in a size 5 when I got married in May. 1993. After I had my first daughter in Aug, 1994 I lost all but 10 pounds of the 50 that I gained. Once I began to plan my second daughter I put 20 pounds on and gained 57 while I was pregnant. Afterwards I did get back down to around 160 and since then I've gone up, up, up. I began considering the VSG after a couple of my friends had it done. I went to my PCP in April praying he would give me some diet pills so I could loose some weight before we went on vacation and he suggested that I look into WLS - that hit me like a ton of bricks. I had VSG on 10/23/08 - I hope that I can have my life back again soon!!!!!!
