I have always struggled with my weight. I was even born a 10 lb 6 oz baby. I know that I have held back in doing alot of things with my life because of my insecurities about my weight. I have tried every diet I've ever heard of and none have worked for me. I come from a family that struggles with weight issues and the problems that come with it. I have alot of risk factors playing against me.  My mother had gastric bypass 5 years ago and it completely saved her life. She is my back bone and my inspiration. She's always been there for me when my weight got me down or all the comments about my weight had me so depressed I could do nothing but cry and end up eating more. I know to some people 23 may seen very young to make such a big decision like this, but I know its right for me. I've done alot of praying about this surgery and the Lord has blessed me with the approval from my insurance. I want to finally be healthy and to be able to move around without gasping for breath and about pass out because I don't want anyone to hear me fighting to catch my breath. My husband and I would love to start a family, but I have to be healthy first.
