I have struggled with my weight since I was 5 years old. I tried every diet and nothing seemed to get the weight off and keep it off. The only diet that worked well was... When I was 13 years old I took Phen-Phen and went from a size 24 to a size 9 in about 9 or 10 months. The doctor took me off the pills then and I weighed 153 lbs. Wow! I really looked good then! Some even said I was too skinny which was unheard of for me. But that was in 8th grade and I gradually gained it all back by the 12th grade and even more after that. My weight has "yo-yoed" up and down all my life and my med. list seemed to get longer and longer every year. I had so many health problems and was still so young! At the age of 24, I decided I wanted to have gastric bypass and with the support of my family, true friends, and wonderful boyfriend I did on February 4th, 2008. My highest weight was 327 lbs. and 2 weeks prior to surgery I lost 20 lbs. doing the liquid diet which put me at 307 lbs.! I was wearing a size 4XL shirt and size 28-30 pants with an elastic waist. **********So weight loss here I come!!!!**********
