I'm 32 yo and have been over weight all of my adult life. I remember being 180 in HS and the scale has only gone upwards from there. I've had a pretty decent life. The most weight I've lost at one period is 60-70 lbs on Atkins, but of course I gained it all back plus some. Recently I've become camera shy because I hate the way I look in pictures and I don't really go out thatmuch anymore either.
I considered WLS about 3 years ago and registered for the informational session, but lost the nerve to go the day before. One of my best girlfriends had the surgery about 2 years ago and looks great. Seeing her success gave me the courage to at least consider it again. I attended the info seminar earlier this year and submitted the required paperwork soon thereafter. About 5 weeks passed and I finally got the call from the doctor's office to schedule me for my psychologist, surgeon and nutrionist appointments. If all goes well I should have RNY on June 1, 2010. I'm ready for change! YES I CAN!!!!
