Well, lets see, i'm 49 years old, a critical care nurse who works 12 hr night shifts! I am married to my soulmate and have been for almost 20 yrs. I have a son 28 yrs old, a daughter 25 yrs old and a stepson who was killed in Iraq in Oct. 2007, he was 22 yrs old. i have always been heavy, since as far back as grade school. I've lost 100's of pounds over the years, mostly on weight watchers, only to find them again! I decided to have WLS a few yrs ago after being deathly afraid of having a massive heart attack and dropping dead. I had 1 grandfather, 1 uncle and 2 cousins, all on my mothers side, have massive, unresusitatable cardiac arrests and I don't want to carry on the tradition! They were all big too!! I have alot to live for and enjoy doing sooo many activities with my husband that I know it will only get better as I lose weight!
