My Wieght Loss Journey!
Apr 04, 2010
I started my wieght problem in 1982 as a child I grew up being very thin looking. As a teenager I also was very thin. But in 1982 I had my first child and had gotten alot of complications, I had very high blood pressure and I became a woman with elephant titis in my feet. I couldnt wear shoes my feet were to swollen, I had to wear mens big slippers. All throughout my pregnancy which didnt last very long only 28 weeks. I developed pre-clamsia, toximia and went into labor. My baby was premature only 2lbs. 12 ounces. But I was left behind with alot of complications. Had gained lots of weight. Thats when my troubles started. In 1985 had my second child and still hadnt lost all the weight. Then I had lost some weight and went down to a size 9-10 in clothes but in 1988 had my third son which did it for my weight. I after this have never gone down again .In January got weighed in at my surgeons office and was up to 219.6 lbs. I had never weighed that much. It was hard for me to get my insurance to approve it but with the help of Dr. Rehnke's office staff we got all the records necessary for approval. I am on High Blood Pressure medications, and cholesterol medication, heart medication, Thyroid medication, also stomach medication. All this was was why I got approved. Now I am 4 weeks after my realize band surgery I am feeling better but still feeling kind of hungry at times which worries me. But the good thing to look at is that I have lost 25 lbs. since my surgery on 3-5-10.
