Like so many others I have been heavy all of my life.  I had a brief moment when I was a "normal" size and then I got pregnant with my daughter and that was it.  I put on 75lbs with her and then it just kept going.  

We tried to have another child, but just couldn't and then I was diagnosed with PCOS.  I have infertility on both sides of my family, so the prospect of not having any more children was disappointing, but not surprising.  

Since I had my daguther, I have been a borderline diabetic and my BP has been scarry high (my highest so far has been 205/99) As my father is a diabetic and has had multiple heart attacks along with so many related problems, my Dr. has been watching me closely.  We had tried so many things and then one day GB cam up.  So that is how I have found my way here.
