Hi There !!!! My name is Lisa and I am soooo excited about my upcoming RNY scheduled on June 30th 2008. I never had a weight problem until after I was married and then lifes stressor kicked in (building our dream home, parents divorcing after 34 years of marriage, infertility and all the "wonderful" drugs that come with that, and a wonderful husband who loves to eat and me wanting to keep up with him !!!). So here I am at 43 yrs old and 120lbs overweight. I did the yoyo dieting thing the last few years, but after being diagnosed with Insulin Resistance, its hard to keep off the weight without taking Glucophage (which my body doesn't care for.....). So after long and careful consideration, I am chosing the surgery route to help me get back to a healthy weight again.... I know it will be an adventure, with lots of learning along the way, but its one I am looking forward too !!! My family is being very supportive and the most important reason I want to do this, is for my 2 1/2 year old daughter that my husband and I adopted from China last year. She has been a blessing in my life and I want to live long enought to see her grow up and fulfill her dreams !!!
