Well this is my story..... I have been over weight since I was a kid. I didn't ever stop me until my parents got divorced and we moved from the only city I've ever known. Then I really packed on the pounds. I was so self consious about my weight I was on independant study in high school, so I missed out on everthing football games, prom, ect...After high school I went on a local Dr's diet (diet pills) and did manage to loose about 90lbs. But after I got married and had my first daughter I gained it ALL back plus some.After the next 5 years I had two more daughters and some more weight.....Jumping forward to the present my mom had the RNY in Oct 2004 and looks great but I have been stubborn saying that I didn't need it I could loose weight on my own WRONG. Well thats it I had my surg on March 27 and all is well so far. I'm looking forward to better health and having more energy for my kids.
