I have been overweight just about all of my life. I went on my first commerical diet when I was 12 years old. Needless to say, it was not a success. I am heading toward that 50 year mark, but move and feel like I'm 70. I live on a farm in Northwest Tennessee, with my husband of 28-1/2 years and 2 grown sons (that I can't convince to leave home). My weight has become a hinderance and a health liability in the last 10 years. I can't do the things I use to do and I don't feel like doing them. I have high blood pressure, high cholosterol, osteoarthritis, acid reflux and other health problems due to my weight. I pray that WLS will be the tool to help me lose and keep the weight off for the rest of my life. I am a very realistic person and I know that WLS is just that a tool.
