Hi my name is Tessa and I am new to this site. For one I can not get a profile pic to upload lol, but i do have a few pics on here. I have been heavy my whole life, but could not shake it at all after I had my 4 children. They are 11,10,8,and soon to be 7. I have been married for 9 years. I had the lap band done 3 years ago and that has not worked out well at all with me. My stomach is sensitive and when they tighten my band I was getting sick and blood was coming up. So they told me it needed to be removed, well i am now bigger than when i started and it is very depressing to me. When i thought i was doing something that was going to help me. I am a stress eater. I need to learn to steer away from that. So i have been doing everything I can with the doctors to get it taken out and have th RNY done. I just finished up all of my counciling sessions that they recommended I have to have before i have surgery. I am a little afraid i have good insurance when i had the lap band done and my husbands job pulled the insurance. So now i have medicaid. I hope that they will approve this to help with my weight loss so i can get back to work!! I am scared but then look at all these success stories and know that this is what i need.
