Hi. My name is Jill. I am 28 years old, and I live in Ft. Worth, Texas. I am married to the most wonderful man, Daniel. We have a dog, Zoey, and two cats, Gizmo and Rylee. We don't have any (human :P) children yet, but would like to within the next few years. I have struggled with my weight for most of my life. I love food, especially the worst kinds! I have always had issues with overeating. I have dieted and lost weight several times, only to fall off the wagon and back into old habits again. I reached my heaviest weight of 344 lbs in August 2008. I never thought I would actually persue weight loss surgery, in fact I used to be "against" it. I always thought, 'if I can't lose it naturally, then I'm meant to be this way'. I have learned, though, that it is okay to seek help, that I am not the only one out there that is like this. I decided to persue weight loss surgery in December of 2008. I went to an orientation with Dr. Gregory Barnes, and learned so much about surgery options and my own health. I decided RNY would be the best option for me. After several months of preparation, I had my surgery August 5, 2009.
