well i really don't know where to begin i'm 5ft 7 374 lbs and have tried every type of diet and weight loss plan u can think of . I have been the big girl all my life but always the life of the party. I am a happy , joyful person most of the time. I have been considering wls for about a year now the ulitmate deciding factor was after really givng it my all and losing 30 lbs i gained it all back.i knew then that i had to consider other options. I have two children. after having my first child at 16 i gained over 100 lbs talk about going from a size 14 to a 26 in 10 months then only getting bigger it was so horrible i didin't even take my senior pics or go to my senior prom even though i was with and still with my childs father (we married right after high school) He is the most wonderful man i couldn't ask for anything more. talking about marriage i didn't have a wedding either because i couldn't imagine myself walking down the isle in a big tent . I help plann lots of weddings so i kind of live my dreams through someone else. after talking it over with my boo and going to my first wl seminar i decided it was time. about a month after the seminar My Dr. office called me to set up my initail appointment by the way thats when i found out i was 370 lbs was a shocker i tell you the tears just rolled. I knew i had made the right choice. my insurance was approved within two weeks and surgery was scheduled. so my journey begins
