I am currently thinking about having WLS.  I have had diabetes since I was 5 years old and am currently wearing an insulin pump.  I have got to the point to where I dont check my glucose level like I should bc I pretty much know when I am low and when I am high.  I had my oldest son in 2000 and that is when I was put on the pump.  Since then I have gained 80 lbs.  The weight just keeps coming and coming.  I have asked my DR to give me something and help me out.  It just keeps getting worse.  I would love to go outside and play baseball with my boys and not get tired and sweaty in a matter of minutes.  We stay on the lake a lot during the summer on my family's pontoon and I would love to be able to sit around and not feel ashamed of how I look and what everyone is thinking when they look at me.  I am tired of being the fattest person at family get to gethers.  My mom lost 125 lbs on her own and looks great but I don't have that will power like she does.  I feel like this is my last resort.  I'm tired of using food as a support system in life.
