Where shall I begin...I have been overweight since I can remember, which dates back till I was 3 years old, I remember having a little yellow bikini with black polka dots on it. That was the last time I remember before having to battle the overweight life.
High school was typcial I had my friends but I also had alot of those people who were thin and thought obese people were disgusting, I admit there was a point I found myself disgusting. So, I dieted...for months and months I lived off one meal and water..I got down to 190lbs my junior year in high school which is not thin but it was thinner then I had been.
Slowly though I gained it all back and then some, when I was 20 years old the day I delievered my son I as 299 lbs. I as mortified being so big...But I did nothing and kept gaining...more and more...After I broke 300 before I was 23 I knew I had to do something I dieted again...lost 10-15 lbs and put it all back on...This was ridiculous!
Finally, at 25 years old I weighed in at 330lbs at 5'8" tall...I was out of control I knew I needed to get myself back...So I began looking into WLS...after Youtube, and google, and all those other places. I decided this past January I was doing it. I began the process.
I ended up losing 12 lbs on the pre-op liquid diet which I as happy. I had my roux-en-y gastric bypass done on July 26, 2010 by Dr Miro Uchal down in Pittsburgh, Pa. He was wonderful. I am now at 317lbs which is still going down but I am also only a few days post-op.
I will take this tool Dr Uchal & God blessed me with and use it to FINALLY get my life back!
