I had gestational diabetes in 1996 that never went away.  I wound up needing insulin to control my diabetes even though I am a Type II Diabetic.  For those of you who know  how insulin works, it makes it very hard to lose weight.  Last year I decided to go on the Insulin Pump because I was tired of being a needle cushion.  However, it seemed to make it even more hard to keep my weight down.  Even with the pump I have had a hard time to control my blood sugars.  I know if I don't do something now, I will be in trouble as time goes on.  That's the main reason why I am having RNY on Monday, April 16, 2007.  Godwilling, I want to be around when my daughter grows up and I also want to have many years with my husband.  Once I get my weight down I know I won't mind working out.  I used to love working out but with the extra weight on, I am usually too tired to exercise.
