Hello everyone! My name is Tiffany and I am a 28 year old wife and mother of twin boys! I have struggled with my weight all my life and have tried every deit under the sun! In 2004 I joined Weight watchers and lost 130lbs in a year. I keep that weight off until may of 2006 when I found out I was pregnant with my boys! I gained 80lbs during my pregnacy and after I had them I lost about 60lbs but slowly gained all of it back plus about 40lbs! My weight has caused me to be put back on all my Blood pressure meds! My pcp has even added two and increased the dosage on one! I started reserching WLS when I thought of how my weight issues could one day cause my children to lose me! My mother and Father were both overweight! My Mother was murdered when I was 17 in front of me and she also dealt with high blood pressure and Thyroid issues. My Father had high blood pressure,cancer, and was a Diabetic he died in 2002 of a stroke! So, the thought of my children having to grow up with out me frightened! My husband is also overweight and I want him to get healthy with me so that we can both have a long prosperous life together! I was approved by my insurance on 12-17-09 after being turned down my first time for lack of info! Im currently waiting on my surgeon's office to call me with my date! I have to go next week to pay my deductable so, I hope that is soon because my husband and i are buying a house and hopefully we will be closing on it pretty soon! I would like to have my surgery before we move so that it will be less stressful for myself and my family! Well as soon as I get my date I will post it!
