I wasn't always heavy when I was younger. I really started putting on my weight after I moved from Chicago to Southern Illinois. I had no friends and all my family was in Chicago. My husband worked nights and I stayed home for the first couple of years so I could care for our 2 younger sons. It just creeped up on me. It was like one day I was 160 then 180, 190, 200 and got worse from there. Now almost 16 years later with all the kids growing up and going to College I can now focus on me. My husband and I decided together that this was the best solution for me. Rick has been my inspiration and my guide through all of this. My husband is the main reason that I lost as much weight as I did. He ate smaller portions or we share meals and we work out together and we eat healthier together. Having the gastric bypass was the best solution for me.
