I have been heavy all my life.  I have been on a diet most of my life.  I believe I have tried every diet on the market at least once.  In 2003 I went through the whole process to have Bariatric Surgery, and lost my job, and lost my insurance just as they were going to assign my surgery date.  At the time I was living in San Jose California.  I was on Kaiser insurance then, but due to high volumn and popularity of this surgery they sent me to San Diego to have the surgery, but I had to back out of surgery.  So after getting out of the program I moved back to my home town in Pennsylvania due to going through a messy divorce.  After a couple years, I met a really nice guy and we got married.  He is very supportive to me.  I tried weight watchers again, and was a member for over 2 years.  I was lucky to lose 37lbs, but then I hit a wall, and started gaining it back, plus more.  I feel terrible, I have HBP, Sleep Apnea, and Colesterol problems.  So I checked bariatric surgery in my area, and I went to see my PCP, and he agree's with me, and he refered me to the a bariatric center in my area, and now I am starting my journey all over again.  this time no matter what happens I am going to have my surgery!  Wish me luck as last night I started my journey last night, as I went to my seminar.  Its going to be a long 6 months, but in the end, it is going to be worth it.
