WOW MY STORY!!!!! where to begin??? I was a "healthy" child all my life just a few lbs heavier than my sister but was always considered the "fat" one and her the "skinny" one. With many incidents happening in my life that made me turn to food as my source of consolation, the weight began to creep up and up to the point where I am now. I have since then battled with my weight trying numerous weightloss programs and failing at each one. Yea I did lose 50 even 70lbs on these programs but look at where I am now, a few days away from surgery. I have been looking into WLS for over 3yrs now and finally in may decided this is what I want. I've been to numerous information seminars and finally felt that I had found the surgeon who made me feel at ease. Im a single mother of three beautiful children Jose, Tatianna, and Jon. They have always been my foundation in which I am able to move forward regardless of what trials and tribulations life may bring. I feel at this time in my life I am in a better place mentally, spiritually, and hopefully with the WLS I will be complete. I chose Dr. Rajeev Vohra as my surgeon. I hope to not lose me as who I am, but become a more confident person. It is hard to explain and maybe hard to grasp but I am ME, may it be the chubby one the "fat" one, the morbidly obese one, I still am ME. I Love me for who I am and I feel that this WLS is to make ME healthier. I have many pet peeve's but in relation to Weight loss, I can NOT stand someone that has been overweight all their lives and changes who they ARE, because of their weight loss. I am very approachable so if you need some one to talk to or have a question that I can hopefully answer don't hesitate to post or message me.
