DENISE S.
Well not much to my story I am a married 34 yrold 5 ft. 208 lb female with 2 boys, 5 and 2, who drive me crazy. They are your typical boys: jump off of anything and everything, play with cars and video games all day, along with fighting each other all day. I love them to death though, and this is why I am choosing to do this surgery .There is nothing worse than your kids wanting to play with you and you are to tired and thats how I feel all the time and I know it is because of my weight. They also want to go places and do things and in the back of my mind I'm always thinking that I have nothing to wear, or everything I do have doesn't look good on me. I know that I shouldn't feel this way but I do. I want to be able to just put anything on and feel good in it and take them places.
I haven't been heavy my whole life, I was a thin child, around middle school I started to gain weight. When I graduated high school I weighed around 140 which wasn't so bad. I have slowly gained weight over the years and reached 212. The only time that I would lose wight was when I was pregnant, each time I would lose around thirty pounds, but whithin a year of their births I would gain it back.
I am scared to do this surgery, just as with any surgery but I think to the future and I think it is the best thing to do.
