I was 26 yrs old, 5'11 and 315lbs when I began my journey into having weight loss surgery in

December 2004. I was interested in having wieght loss surgery for myself because I noticed

everyday how my weight affects my life. I have two beautiful sons Tyshiem and Tymier and a very

supportive and loving significant other name Shannon, who has been by my side through my whole

journey. I love my children and Shannon with all my heart and I wanted to make sure that I could 

be the best that I could be for them.  My surgery date was March 3, 2005; as of September 2005 

I am down 100 pounds. I am now 27 years old; I have a goal weight of about 150-165 lbs.

Update:  It is October 16, 2006 I have lost over 150lbs of my excess weight and

I have had an Anchor cut Tummy Tuck approved by my insurance company. I am

28 years old now enjoying my weight loss and loving the way that I look. I want

to say to the people out there that think losing this weight was easy and it makes

everything better…THAT IT IS NOT…IT’S HARD AND I STRUGGLE WITH IT

JUST LIKE YOU. But my entire journey has been what I have made it. This is

my personal journal as well as a reminder to myself to never forget what it used

to be like before I had wieght loss surgery.  If anyone out there has any

question or just wants to talk to a fellow WLS’s, I am here anytime just drop

me a line.  I thank OH and BAF for all their support.
