I'm a SAHM to a wonderful 4 1/2 year old son. I was working for Richland Memorial Hospital in the Resource Center where we call in authorizations for Inpatients/Outpatient procedures/testings. Loved my job until I had a son.


I have been overweight my entire life. If I wasn't morbidly obese, my breasts made me stick out like a sore thumb. I always justified my feelings based on my breasts and stomach stayed up with each other so it "balanced me out." Sure there's alot of people that feel the same way.

Last year I decided to have a breast reduction and ever since then I have not felt like myself anymore. I felt like I became "normal" in respect to part of me and with much soul searching and heart felt prayer I decided to have gastric bypass surgery. This is not an overnight decision. My physicians suggested it to me while I was pregnant. I said let me try it on my own. And I did. As so many, I was able to lose weight just not enough. It was never enough. So, last year I decided enough is enough. I admitted that I can't do it alone and that I'm not a failure because of that and started making mental changes and physical changes to my life. Ever since then I have refocused my love to myself and am committed to making a better life for me!!!

With this tool that Dr. Tribble will give me, he will allow me to help not only myself but others get through this and hopefully give hope where there might not have been any. I am incredibly committed to the process as I have demonstrated to him and my own physician for that matter.

I can hardly wait to start my rebirth!!
