My story is similar to others on here. Ive been overweight most of my life. I had my daughter in 2006 and at that time I was around 250 pounds. My highest weight this year has been 358.2 pounds. As of today (11/11/11) I am 334.8 pounds. I am very proud of myself for losing the weight however, I know it will enevtually come back just as every other pound I have sheeded before. I have been considering surgery for almost a year now. Ive researched it, seen several surgeons, visited a few seminars and support groups. I have finally decided to make the change and go through with the surgery. I am in the process of it all right now. I will keep everyone posted. I hope to meet wonderful people who are going through and who have been through bariatric surgery.
