My story starts about when I was 28 after having my son, I gain over 60 Pd's with him and never lost it. No wait-- I did loose 50
Pd's. one summer about 18 years ago, and ended up in the hospital for 10 days , cause I had a flu . When I eat, the food went out the way in went in. After that it seem that I put on 10-20 Pd's on a year. I never stopped trying to lose weight month after month , diet, after diet. I'd lost 10 lbs and put back on 15 after a few months. This diet and taking the weight off and putting back on when on for over 30 years. about 10 years ago I had my first back surgery. Then the weight came and brought about 60 pounds of friends too, now I am up to 260 Pd's. I just gave up hope of ever losing any weigh, I was telling my husband that I just die fat.
Last year I read about this surgery to loss weight. I happen to watch a t.v. show about it. Then I started my Internet studying about the different kinds of surgeries. After praying about it and looking up Dr.'s . I called my insurance to see if they covered it. To my surpise they did. Insurance paid all but about $2600.00 of it. That we can do. Then I had to talk to my husband about doing the surgery. He was for it as long as my Dr. was. So off to the Dr's office I go. And he was all for it too.
So now I am doing the 3 months with my Dr. and all my test to get to my surgery date.
