I have always had an issue with weight while I was growing up. I was always the "chubby" girl and took a lot of abuse about my weight from kids my age. I tried numerous diets, losing weight with lots of them, but then always gaining it back along with a few more pounds! When I started to have kids, after each childbirth some of the added pregnancy weight never went away, so after 3 kids, I found myself very overweight. When I hit 40, things started to go down hill as far as my health and the quality of my every day lifestyle. My back was bad, my knees and feet always hurt, that's when I really decided that I needed to do something life changing or I was going to be in BIG trouble. In 2009, I got remarried to a wonderful guy that has been so supportive and we bought a new house that I loved! As soon as we were moved in and settled I started to pursue WLS (June 2009). I had my surgery in Sept 2009, and it was the BEST thing I have ever done for myself. When people say "welcome to your new life" they are not kidding! Here is to my new life and a boatload of happiness to come!
