I have been struggling with my weight since I was 11 years old. I'm 36 now and tired of the struggle. I keep losing the same 30 lbs over and over again. I have wanted to have this surgery done since I first heard about it in 1998, but my husband feels very strongly against it, so I held off and held off hoping he would change his mind. Well, he hasn't, so I decided to quit waiting and just move forward. The big turning point was win I weighed in at 335 for the first time and was contemplating buying size 34 clothes. I had once promised myself that I would never let myself go past size 28. We see how well that worked!!!
Now that I'm scheduled to have surgery on October 31st, my DH is still unsure about my decision, but I am moving forward with gusto and enthusiasm. I keep hoping that October 2007 will just fly by. So far, however, it is going by at a crawl. We will have to see how things progress.
