I have been over weight my whole life.  August 6, 2007 I had gastric bypass.  It changed my life.  I guess I should say I actually have a life now.  I have more energy than I have had since I was a teen.  Anyone considering this should do it.  I wish I had done this years ago.  I am married with 3 children.  I lost my mother Sept  4, 2006.  That was a turning point for me.  She was only 60 yrs old.  I knew then that if I wanted to live to see my kids have kids I better do something.  I had my first grandchild Sept 4, 2007!   That is right 1 yr to the day that I lost my mom.  I believe it was my moms way of saying life goes on.  My profile pic is me holding Caden my grandson.  I can play with him and spoil him and enjoy him in ways  know I woudln't have been able to do at 336 lbs.  I have the life I always wanted but didn't know I could have!  To anyone looking into this find a good doctor and go for it.  I have NO regrets!
