I decided to have the surgery after a lifetime of losing weight.  I was a fat adolescent (135 lbs at age 10; 175 lbs at 17.  I decided (pretty radically for back then) to just quit eating and drank water and had a piece of cheese on toast.  I lost 55 lbs in two months..healthy, huh! I also turned a colorful shade of green all over my body! I started exercising after I lost the weight, runniing for 45 minutes a day. Things you go do at 17 or 18 and not so much when you're 59 going on 60.  My weight steadily increased until I reached my highest weight ever: 220. I went on the hcg diet and lost 25 pounds in a relatively short time period but gained it all back after I stopped the hcg diet. When I was recently diagnosed with high chlorestral, high blood pressure and diabetes, I decided enough was enough!
