Hi my name is Barbara and I had RNY gastric bypass surgery on July 2,2009. I weighed 330 lbs and felt terrible. I wasn't the over eater type just the one that would eat the wrong things to give that boost to get me through the day. I wasn't over weight growing up or as a teenager. Got married at 18 yrs old and I had 3 boys in 3 yrs and before I was 21 yrs old. I gained weight about 5 yrs after my youngest and then it just kept adding on. I still went to the gym and even tried every diet under the sun to no avail didn't loose a heck of lot of weight. So about 10 yrs ago a doctor recommended the surgery. I was too chicken sh*t to get it done then, so the pounds kept coming on and I didn't understand I was active and lost weight and then gained twice back. Well I have been through a divorce my brothers accidental death, then my moms fight with cancer and her death. Then a few people I knew had the sugery and they did great so I decided I needed to do something before I start having health issues. So here I am I have lost a total of 110lbs in 6 months and still need to loose 65 to 70 lbs more.
