Well, ... where do you begin.. I have been overweight as far back as I can remember.... I think I have tried every diet under the moon.. but I am one of those girls who need to see results right away and as we all know that's not how all diets work. So I tend to get a bit discouraged. I have tried, phen-phen, weight watchers, jenny Craig, low calorie, low fat, atkins, south beach you name it I have tried it... So after the birth of my daughter in late 2002 I started putting more and more weight on. I went thru a nasty divorce in 2005 and that's what really did me in... I have noticed a HUGE difference since then. But I am now ready to make a change for the good in my life... I started looking into WLS in 2006 only to get shot down by those darn insurance companies and last year I tried again and went thru almost all the pre-op and then my claim got denied.... So now I had to wait a whole year to try again... I had to switch insurance companies and FINALLY HERE WE GO.... I got approved for RNY... which I was not to sure about.. I am a mother of a beautiful 6 year old and it completely scared me that she would be left alone if God forbid something happens to me. Plus I am only 28 years old and I did not want to have anemia, vit diff and such for the rest of my life... I have to have the energy to keep up with my Daughter... So here we go on this Journey...
