I had my roux-en-y gastric bypass surgery November 8, 2004 with Dr Brad Amson in Victoria, BC Canada. My surgery weight was 308, my highest recorded weight 325 (first visit to Brad Amson).
I got pregnant at the end of 2005 and had my baby boy Jacob on September 15, 2006; overall the pregnancy went great, however I got my first gallbladder attack when I was 26 weeks pregnant - November 20, 2006 I had my gallbladder removed.
My lowest weight was 153, which I reached after I had Jacob. However, I didn't stay there... due to inactivity, and not sticking to the rules, I gained weight, getting up to 170 lbs again. My goal is 140-145.
October 2, 2008 I had reconstructive surgery with Dr Frederico Macaya in San Jose, Costa Rica. I had a lower body lift, lipo on thighs and hips, a thigh lift and brachioplasty. I am very pleased with the results thus far and look forward to the next few months when the swelling decreases and the scars fade.
I will obtain my goal weight - I am more determined than ever now to do so.
