Hi!
I am 31 and happily married. I have been overweight most of my life. I was in a horrible relationship, which ended just as bad, and when it ended I quit eating and lost 70lbs. I still wasn't thin with that loss, but I sure felt much better. That's when I met my wonderful husband. He is the the best thing that has every happened to me. We have been together 9 years, married 8 1/2 years. I kept the 70lbs off for about 1 year after we got together, but then I moved where it was not safe to walk outside anymore, so my three miles a day went down to about 1 mile every three or four days. I slowly started gaining the weight back. I tried WW about 15 times since then, and every time I would lose 10 - 20 lbs, then I would plateau, give up and gain more than I lost. That's how I ended up where I am now. I wanted to have GBS, but my husband was against it, until I started having major health problems the last 6 months. My doctor has been encouraging me to have it for over a year now. I finally have the support I need and I'm scheduled for July 6, 2009 and I can't wait. I want to be able to enjoy my life, not sit on the sidelines and watch everyone else enjoy their's!!!!! My husband and I have been trying to have a family for about 6 years now, and have been unable. The doctors say that once I have this done and lose the weight I should be able to get pregnant with no problem, so I sure hope they know what they are talking about! I want nothing more than to be able to start a family!
