I have had a weight problem since I was 12 years old. I'm now 27 years old and I weigh 260 lbs. That is so hard to say. I am hoping that I will be approved for WLS before my birthday which is 7-11. I want to get this weight off and keep it off for good. I have a husband and three children that need me. But most importantly I need ME!!! I am tired of this weight and I'm tired of trying new diets every year. So this is it for me. I have tried several diets throughout the years and no matter how hard I try the weight I loose is the same weight I regain along with extra.
My goal is to be 160 lbs. Which 100 lbs I need to loose.
Please pray for my because everyday I think about changing my mind about WLS. But I know its now or never.

Ok so its 12/19/10 I had my VSG on 8/30/10 and its been a blast so far. I am now 184 pounds and wearing a size 12 jeans and large tops. I feel great already. My goals have changed for lots of reasons. I now want to get to 175 and stop. I say this because I think I am thin enough for my height. My bones are showing and my ribs can be felt easily. Iwanted to loose weight but not be a skeleton. So I will be done with the weight loss portion of my journey hopefully by the middle of January.
