Jennifer M.
My name is Jennifer Rose Marshall, but I prefer Jen. :)
I'm 23 years old, turning 24 in March 2015.
I am PreOp for RNY. Surgery Date: 9/8/2014 Surgeon: Dr. B. Lahmann - New Lenox, IL
I have been overweight most of my life. Although when I was a little girl (newborn-toodler years) I was very skinny, that a lot of people thought my parents weren't feeding me. Some even called child services on my mother! But I was being fed right and they didn't go further into it besides a home visit. When I began my school years, that's when everything changed and I began to put weight on. I suffered a lot of bulling in school!! ='/
In 2006 I was diagnosed with PolyCystic Ovarian Syndrome. I was 15 years old at the time, and I wasn't really good at keeping up with taking my medications because at the time I was still "young" and didn't think it would hurt me in the end. When I hit 17 though I began to think about it and how it effects my future, and how I would never have a child of my own, so then I started taking better care of myself! =)
In 2012 I was diagnosed with Type-2 Diabetes and have since been trying to lose weight naturally without surgery (or in hopes of putting the surgery further down the road!) I have been having very positive results since starting my weight loss journey!! =) ♥
