I have a great life...wonderful family, great friends....but something still just isn't right.  Someone my age should not have the health problems I have.  I have a teenage son from a previous relationship, and since I got married 5 years ago, we have had the disappointment of 2 miscarriages and being diagnosed with having unexplained infertility. Also in the past 5 years I have had my gall bladder removed, and a nissen fundoplication with hernia repair.  The list could go on with the problems, but I won't bore you with them all

I have been researching bariatric surgery for over 4 years.  The idea of surgery was introduced to me by a co-worker who had the surgery herself.  When she started telling her story, it sounded a lot like me.  I have struggled with losing weight.  I have changed my eating habits, exercised, and did everything I was supposed to do.  I would lose 15 pounds and it would find me again.  I have seen they future of my health through the things that have afflicted my family and have already started afflicting me.  I will not follow that same path. It's about time somebody turned off of that road.  I am excited to start a new way of living, being healthy and sharing my new habits with those around me.  There are so many great things to come.  I know it will not be easy, but I am ready for the challenge!
