So I was a young mother. Before I got pregnant I was a thin girl at a whole 120 lbs and a size 4. After I had my son I just blew up to 180 and started to gradually go up from there over the years. When I got pregnant with my daughter I was a 230 lbs and with my weight I had many issues with my pregnancy with her. Having to be put on bed rest from 9 wks along and then Hypertention issues as well as being diagnosed with HELLP syndrome and being delivered 5 weeks early via c-section. This therefore caused a great deal more weight gain since I was sick after birth, I was unable to really get up and do much. So I ballooned up to 280.

My breaking point and deciding to go ahead with having the surgery was when I found out because of my weight it is causing way to much stress on my heart. Causing the hypertension as well as palpitations. My heart just could not keep up anymore. Plus there is the fact that I can't keep up with my kids anynmore. My 12 year old son is now starting to follow in my footsteps and I really don't want him to be doing this.

So I decided it was time to take my life into my own hands and make a good example for my kids.
