Considering Weight Loss Surgery

Sep 24, 2009

Hello, my name is Brenda, and I'm seriously considering having weight loss surgery.  I'm 5'4" and weigh 236 pounds.  I've tried so many diets and exercise plans, however I have not been able to keep the weight off.  I lost around 100 pounds back in 1997, from starving myself and excessive exercise.  Lost the weight in 9 months, but I I've gained all but 25 pounds back.  I have considered weight loss surgery in the past, however I let my fears take over and didn't follow through with making an appointment.  I have a really good friend that had the gastric bypass done last year and he has lost down to his normal weight and is felling great.  I've read on line that my diabetes II may disappear and that has convinced me to do it.  I'm looking forward to visiting with other individuals that have had surgery and learning what to expect.  There is a butterfly inside me that is wanting to be released once and for all.  I have a lot of living to do and want the rest of my life to be healthy and fit.
