I am a 37 year old mother of a 20 yr old son & 3 step children 2 boys ages are 16 & 12 & 1 girl she is 6 yrs old.  I have been married for 2 yrs as of November 14....Yeah!!! & I haven't even caught a case...LOL  But truly marriage is a very hard job, but as anything in life you get what you put into, so needless to say I am putting my all and all.  I have never been a skinny person I was slim but thick with it.  I have always been active, which is a good thing it has kept away the health issues that usually go along with being morbidly obese.  In the last 5 years I have been on a rollercoaster ride with this issue of weight, I have been able to lose weight with numerous diet methods some supervised by Dr.'s others were fad diets.  However; I have never dropped a size in clothes it just makes them fit a little better.  It can become discouraging knowing that you are doing what you are supposed to do to try to achieve the results that you looking for and to no avail you have gained...it sucks.  WLS is my last resource to be able to finally get to where I want to be happy with myself, everybody says that I don't need the surgery, but I am not doing this for anyone but for Renee 1st and everyone else is secondary...I am the one that has to live this life...I just wish for support & hope that my family & friends realize that this is not the easy way out....from all of  my research It is going to be a battle for the rest of my LIFE.  I just would like to say that OH, & BAF is the best thing that has happened to me it is very informative and a wealth of knowledge on this site...I hope to meet a bunch of people & make some new friends as we go through this life altering experience together. 

Resptfully,

Renee J
