My story is probably similar to many, I am a 41 year married woman who has been over weight most of my life. My parents raised me to eat everything on my plate otherwise I was wasting money they work very hard to make. I found a thin man who loved me for who I was, but as we lived our life, we also ate together and became overweight together. I have 3 children 2 boys (13 and 15) and 1 daughter (17 years). My boys are very thin, but of course my daughter is following in my footsteps. I have chosen to take this step in my life for many reasons. She is one of my biggest reasons. I want to help her before its too late. She is very positive and wants to learn to be healthy and I know this will help her. My husband has not been the greatest support system for my having the surgery, but I believe will be willing to accept the changes that I am about the venture into. My goal is to reach 140 lbs by April of 2007. I am going on a cruise and would love to be able to dress the way I have always wanted to.
