My story starts like this. Once I had children i never lost the weight but still I was in the Air Force so i had to keep my weight under control (between 150-155). Once i got out of the Air Force in December 2000 my weight sky rocketed! I gained 50 pounds in 6 months. It didn't help that I was off work for those 6 months. Since then I have reached a max of 243. i did manage to ose 20 pounds myself. So right now I am desperate to have this surgery and gain my self esteem and life back. I want my husband and children to be pround of me and not embarrassed.
