I'm 26 years young & had been trying to unsuccessfully lose weight since the age of 10. Nothing worked, or at least worked past losing 25 lbs. I had RNY July 29, 2008. The best decision I ever made for myself in my young life.



I never had any MAJOR adverse health issues (like diabetes or heart disease) due to my weight, but I did have chronic back pain, Sciatica (feels like someone stabbing me in the leg with a red-hot knife & twisting til I actually cannot walk), low self-esteem and joint & knee pain.



Heaviest weight before surgery: 297lbs
Weight date of surgery: 274lbs
Short-term goal: 199lbs
Ultimate goal: 140lbs
Weight as of 7.29.10: 135lbs!
I'm currently 5lbs below my ultimate goal!
New goal: 129lbs
