My weight problems didn't start until after my 2nd child. I never got back to my pre-pregnancy weight, instead the scales inched higher and higher. Tried numerous diets over the years, some worked, some didn't. I would take off some of the weight but would steadily regain it all back and then some, lol. Now coupled with diabetes and high blood pressure, I started looking into WLS after my daughter asked me if I had ever consisdered it, which I had not. I started doing research into the different types of surgery and I decided to go with the gastric bypass. So, I began my journey in March of this year by attending a WLS seminar. I made my decision right there that this is what I needed to do. I started setting up my pre-op appointments that week. I got my approval and my surgery is scheduled for July 27, 2011!
