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!
