Hello There! I'm a 25 yr old mother of one living in Baltimore, Maryland. I've been over weight all of my life. This is the most I have ever weighed (5'2 1/2" 232 lbs). Even when I was pregnant I didn't weigh this much. I have tried everything from dieting, going to the gym 3-5 days a week to diet pills. The most I have ever lost was 20lbs. after I had my daughter & that was b/c I was dieting, going to the gym 5 days a week & taking diet pills (Not Healthy). I loved going to the gym, so working out is not an issue for me. Food is not an issue either, although I do like to eat whatever I want (I know that will change after surgery) but I don't splurge. When I told my friends & family about having Gastric Bypass Surgery they thought I was crazy... some still do. I'm usually told "You Don't Look That Heavy". Everyone carries their weight differently. Most of my weight is in my legs. I didn't want to wait until I was 400lbs. then decide to do something about it. My surgery date is scheduled for Jan. 23, 2008. I'm so EXCITED! A lil nervous (of course).
