I have always been heavy. In Kindergarten I was 100 lbs, by 5th grade I was 200 lbs. In high school I was a 300 lb cheerleader! After struggling with weight my entire life I decided to look into WLS. I began in the US and was denied by insurance. So I felt my only option was Mexico at that time. In 2006 I went to Mexico for lap band surgery (423 lbs). The staff was amazing. The doctor was great. Unforturnately I began having issues with the band, like many others, and vomited daily. In October 2008 I found out I was 3 1/2 months pregnant with my first child (330 lbs). After delivering my son I was still vomiting. Found out that my band had slipped. In June 2010, a new band was placed. Still vomiting daily. In July 2011 band removed, it was beginning to perforate my stomach, and a revision to the RNY (330 lbs). Found out that I was pregnant in Feb 2012. Delivered a healthy baby boy in Oct 2012 (240 lbs). Found out I was pregnant in Dec 2012. Delivered a healthy baby girl Aug 2013. In July 2014 had skin removal (tummy tuck, full lower trunk lift, breast lift) after surgery hit lowest weight (223 lbs). In Feb 2015 had arm lift. By Nov 2015 was about 260 lbs. Started to regain more an more. Now I am looking for a revision to the DS. Limited in the states so have began searching in Mexico as well.
