Amber S.
Hello, my name is Amber. I have been overweight since childhood, with a few short spots here and there where I was at an "acceptable" weight. I struggled my whole old life with people making fun of me because of my weight. I started doing drugs and wound up in a Christian treatment facility that I lived in for 14 months After I graduated that program, a couple years later I met the man of my dreams who was also in the program. We got married and started enjoying food way too much. I am a woman, so the pounds packed on quickly. I guess it was a substitute for drugs or something. I became larger than ever and started worrying about the diabeties that runs in my family, as well as heart problems. I tried working out and sort of dieting, but I just didn't have it in me like I wished. I had RNY on September 12th, 2008 and life is goooooooooooood. I love the new me... and my husband doesn't seem to mind the change either. 
I have lost 176 lbs to date! Yay me!
