I think the first time I realized I was larger than others was in 3rd grade. I had recently changed meds to control my epilepsy and my weight had begun to shift. Since then it has been an ongoing (read here exhaustive) battle. I have tried all different diets, some more effective than others. I think the big thing now is that I feel losing weight is possible, but I am always scared to death that I will not be able to keep it off. Having WLS will help effectively get and stay at a normal weight.
I turned 30 at the end of March and I have decided this is the year for change. I am excited about the changes to come. My only concern is that my insurance is denying me. I may have to self pay 100%. I am not married, so the finances could be a strain. But hey, I should save a lot of grocery and eating out money, right?
