I started this journey in 03/2007 after long-time dieting, regaining, etc then myself and my physician thought it was time to look into WLS. I decided on Gastric Bypass as it is the fastest weight loss surgery; other than that a few friends, colleagues of mine had this done and it was all so familiar to me and I liked the success they had with this type of surgery.

My surgery date is 03-17-09 and sure I am nervous/anxious/excited, etc. I am nervous of the new lifestyle I will have, nervous because it is major surgery which will take 3-4 hrs on the table. I am anxious to get it all over and done with and get on with my new life. I am excited to be able to play with my 2 beautiful girls like I use to do with everyone else's children when I didn't have any. You see, I have a 2 yrs old name Jaime and a 3 yr old name Tarah and they are my reason for living and wanting to live longer which drove me to seeking WLS. I have a very supportive Fiance who loved me when I was at my highest as he doesn't see me like I see myself; he is in love with my body I am not. I understand I will not fully love my body afterward because of excess fat but I will deal with that when that time comes. I want to live longer and enjoy all I can with my family. That is my story for now. Hugzzzz to all in there venture and remember everyone has a story. Stay positive and pray.  Hugzzzz
