I have tried just about every diet known to man... at least I think I have. I was not always overweight, I just went from the coca cola bottle to a 2 liter. I have considered wls in the past , was scared and tried to lose the weight on my own. I guess my story is like everyone else's I have tried several diets only to lose and gain back even more. My moment of truth came to me in the form of my PCP who stated, " Danielle you need to lose the weight or your health will slowly deteroriate."
I am only 33 y.o. a mother of 4, ages 14, 12, 8 and a Chinese Shar-pei (my dog) who is 4. I lost both parents before I was 25 due to health reasons and I don't want that to be me. I want to live to see my children grow up and to grow old with my best friend, my husband.
I am 5'5" and weigh 255 and am very thick in the thighs (just being funny). Health problems include: diabetes, high cholesterol, mild sleep apena, hypothyroidism, anemic, and vitamin D deficiency. However, while undergoing my pre-op testing I was informed of the mild sleep apena, hypothyroidism, anemic, and vitamin D deficiency.
