Hello to anyone who may see this.  I am a 27 year old female who is hoping to have WLS. My current weight is 295 lbs, although I started much heavier than this.  My top weight was 340 lbs. Thanks to supervised dieting I was able to lose a bit, but not enough. I am currently in the process of getting all needed documentation for sending into my insurance.  I am motivated to do this because I have two small children, ages 5 yrs and 2 yrs, and I don't want to leave them without a mother.  I need to be around to watch them grow up.  I did a lot of research about WLS and through talking with my surgeon my best option would be RNY, because I am even too big for banding. Imagine that, even something to help us lose weight discriminates against us. So I invite you to take part in my journey, as I have read other blogs and feel that everyone here totally supports one another.  If you have any suggestions or questions for me, I would greatly appreciate them!!
