Hi! I am Tricia I am a very proud Army wife, and a mother of one spoiled rotten little boy. I have been researching WLS for about a year now. I've been overweight since I was 16. From the age 16-19 I wore size 13 jeans, and weighed between 160-180 then I got pregnant and gained 80lbs with my pregnancy. I weigh the exact same thing I did the day I went into labor. I've tried so many diets that I couldn't even list them all, I excersise, and I've even been prescibed weight loss medication. Nothing has worked. So I guess my last resort is WLS. I want to live a healthy meaningful life for my son. I'm tired of being to embarrased to go places with him, getting tired, ect. So I am not only doing this for a new way of life, I'm doing it to see my son grow up in a great eventful life. So right now I have a Dr's Apt with my PCP for a consult for WLS, and I guess I'll see how it goes from there.
The reasons I want this surgery:
I want to sit on a plane and be comfortable and not worry the belts will not meet.
I want to put a bathing suit on and feel good about myself.
I want to have energy to play with my kids and do outdoor activities with my family.
I want to not have joint pain in my feet and knees.
I want to stop the dieting plans and fad diets once and for all.
I want to buy awesome clothes and feel great wearing them.
I want to feel sexy and really make my DH drool. =D
I want to for the first time in my life walk in Victoria's Secret and buy something that will fit me.
I want to be able to sit in a restaurant and eat without feeling like people are looking at me and wondering why I am there.
