My Story..
Mar 16, 2013
What is your earliest memory of being overweight or your first experience with dieting? That was the main focus/question during my Nut evaluation a month ago.... 7 years old..... I remember over hearing my sister, then 17, tell my mom " What I wouldn't give to be 100 pounds" I remember running to her scale, jumping on , and seeing 107 and I thought to myself wow I am so lucky I AM 100 POUNDS!!! Now I was 7 and had nooooo idea i was over weight, all I knew was my BIG sister would give anything to be my weight =) My whole life feels like one HUGE diet. There is 10 years between my sister and I, so I grew up watching her, and my mom struggle to get thin. The crazy things they tried would be my future life lol. I have tried all the same ways to lose weight and like them it didn't work. For me I struggle with GERD , severe acid reflux, and migraines. It has progressed so much that I am bed ridden 3-4 days a month minimum . Choosing this surgery was the best choice I feel I could have made. It will completely take away my GERD & Migraines. It will help me lose weight since my metabolism has snail speed due to damages from my GERD. I will be getting my life back!
