Hello. I am new to this site. I am looking at the different options regarding weight loss surgery. I've been thinking about this for a while now but when I saw my weight today, I am pissed off!
My husband had gastric bypass in January last year. He hasn't had any complications and has lost approx. 100 lbs. I am so very proud of him. As he has been losing weight, I have been gaining. I've gained approx. 30 lbs. over the past year. I am so angry and have no energy. I am getting to the point where I can barely wipe myself after using the bathroom! My current BMI is 36.3%. I take medication for high cholesterol and high blood pressure as well as depression/anxiety and insomnia.
2012 was a rough year for me. I had to have a left neck excision in March (tumor was benign) and then I had to complete my partial hysterectomy in December. Now I am trying to cope with going through "the change" and I am only 37 years old. To make matters worse, I am 15 weeks away from finishing my degree and I was let go from my job of 6 1/2 years on January 2, 2013.
I have tried and failed with Weight Watchers. I've contemplated Jenny Craig and Medi-Fast. I joined the YMCA and basically threw my money away. I have also given Curves a shot.
Any suggestions are welcome and of course very appreciated.
