I'm a 52 year old married mother of 2 beautiful adopted daughters. I've been yo-yo dieting as long as I can remember. Every diet under the sun. 12 years ago, I started an extreme exercise (running 5-6 miles a day and weights) while watching what i ate. Got to 149 from 210 and felt and looked great. Shortly thereafter my DH and I started the adoption process, which proved to be a difficult albeit a successful journey. During that stressful time I injured my back (bye-bye running) and slowly put the 60 pounds plus another 10 back on over the course of 12 years. Last spring i spent over $1000 on Nutri-system, Went from my all time high of 230 to 200, then came summer fun, fall and winter. In January when I tried once again to restart I decided at the age of 52 I was done. Done with the daily struggle. My older sister has VSG a year before and lost about 70 lbs. She begged me to go for it...and I did. I had just had enough. I don't want to spend the rest of my adult life on a diet. \\
Self-pay I went to Mexico and never looked back!
