I quit smoking last August after my dad had open heart surgery. After that it was like everything I ate turned to fat! Seeing my father lying there in the hospital made me realize my own mortality. I quit smoking because I want to see my son graduate high school. At 360LBS that won't happen so I decided to take control of my life once and for all and be healthy which means losing all of this extra weight. I'm ready to change my life!
I first considered lap-band surgery, then VSG. However, after a lot of research, I have decided RNY is the right choice for me. I went to a seminar put on by the hospital and the bariatric doctor who does the surgeries. I have my 1 on 1 with the doc on August 26th. I am excited, yet worried and scared. If I survive the surgery with no complications, THEN, I will know I made the right decision for me and my family!!
