My name is Lynette, I'm 52 and live in Norman.  I weighed 98 pounds in 7th grade and that's the last time I ever wanted to talk about my weight.  I weighed 180 when I married, 240 six months later.  I joined weight watchers and lost down to 165.  My husband still called me fat.  Got pregnant, weighed 205 after my first child.  Got pregnant 2 years later and weighed 240 after that one.  Nine months later I got divorced and have gained ever since then.  I weighed 365 when I finally gave up on all the different diets and decided to do something drastic.  I have sleep apnea, I was on blood pressure medicine, I was borderline diabetic and have a sister that has been bedridden for the last three years because of obesity.  IT WAS TIME.  I had sleeve surgery on the 18th of February by Dr. Toby Broussard.  Everything has gone wonderfully.  I was up and around, probably doing what I shouldn't have been, two days later.  I get the signal when I've eaten too much, but I haven't learned when I'm approaching it so I stop before I get that awful full feeling.  I now weigh 307 and hope I'm continuing down.  Give me advice.  Keep me in your prayers.  I really want this to be the answer to my prayers.
