I am 35 years old and I am happily married with four beautiful children. I am truly blessed! The only problem is my health. I am the heaviest I have ever been in my whole life. My husband loves me for who I am. Him and my children are my life. I am very afraid that if I do not have this surgery that I will not live to watch my children grow up. I have been heavy all of my life but I have always been athletic and I have always carried my weight well. I now have high blood pressure,degenerative disc disease, sleep apnea and my body hurts so badly on a daily basis. I have a 14 year old and an 11 year old that I cannot play ball with because I hurt too bad and a 3 year old that I can hardly chase around and believe me, she is in to everything. I have an 8th month old that I cant get on the floor with and play and I am ready to do all of these things. I have decided that I am having the surgery this year. My insurance has approved it and I have picked a surgeon. My insurance requires that I jump through hoops to make it happen so I have started jumping. I have had my psychiatric evaluation,attended a support group meeting, picked a surgeon, visited with a nutritionist and now i am just waiting to do it all again next month. I am hoping to have surgery in August. I have a feeling that these next five months are going to go by slowly. The support group that I attended suggested that I join this sight so here I am. I guess this is the beginning of my story and I will be back!
