I've been a member for a little more that a month already and I finally decided to share a little about myself. I've been overweight all my life. Consistently gaining about 10lbs every year until I've reached my highest weight @ 248lbs. Just like everyone else on OH I've tried EVERYTHING you can name to try to lose weight. I'm mainly doing this for my 21mo old son. He is my inspiration to live longer and have energy to play with him.
I'm currently in the process of getting the WLS. I've met with my surgeon, psychiatrist, nutritionist, and I am in a program called Healthy Roads my insurance requires me to take before I'm even considered for WLS. I have about 2 more months to go. I not even sure if the WLS will be approved.
Hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease run in my family and if I have the WLS it will most likely prevent me from getting those diseases. I have also been diagnosed with moderate sleep apnea.
I'm ready to have WLS!
