Ok. Here goes nothing!
My name is Erin. I live in MD with my husband and daughter. We have two cats, PG and Gizzy, and I recently added a new member to our family, Tia, a cute pinto pony I rescued.
I have been overweight my entire life. I have been there and done that on just about every diet out there. They work for about a month and then, poof, everything plus some is back and its not going anywhere! Ugh!
I work as a receptionist/warehouse manager by day. In the evenings and on weekends I am with my students, giving lessons and riding horses.
After years of trying and failing, I have decided the best thing for myself and my family is to have the surgery. My doctors agree as I also have PCOS, High blood pressure, severe acid reflux, asthma and quite possibly sleep apnea.
I have not had the surgery yet, I start my nutritional support group classes next week, so I am 6 months out or so. I am excited and nervous all at the same time.
I just want to be healthy.
