I've always had a weight problem. From being "pleasingly plump" as a child to full blown morbid obesity as an adult. Tried about every diet around, from the Cambridge , Nutrisystem, HCG injections, Weight Watchers, Atkins, Southbeach, fasting, eggs and spinich, you name it. I've been told, "it's such a pity, you have such a pretty face, but such a fat body". Can you imagine??? Well after watching Dr. Oz one day discussing wls, I started to do some research, and decided as a 54 year old woman who at that time weighed closed to 270 pounds, it was time to do something. March 20, 2012 I had the vertical gastric sleeve procedure and couldn't be happier! I had a great surgeon, spent one night in the hospital, and within a week was back to normal activites. I have a very supportive husband of 30 years, and 3 adult children, all with "normal" weights. Very exicited about the changes I've made and for the changes to come!!
