I am a 266 overweight woman who has sugar diab. and a thyroid problem and a bad back which I had 3 surgeries. My exercising was very limited. I tried weight watchers and I joined curves. I loss some weight and had to quit curves as the strain on my back was to much. I have 3 beautiful granddaughters and I knew that I had to do something if not for myself for them. I wanted to do be able to go out and play ball with them take them to amusement parks and fit in the seats of the rides, so I went to the doctors and she suggested I have the gastric by pass. Well I didn;t hesitate I set up and appt. and I went to the seminar and I contacted my insurance and they approved it within 5 days. I got the date for my surgery and I was ready to start the new me. My surgery was on Feb. 18, 2008.
