I finally decided to do something about my weight last year. I was so tired of feeling so uncomfortable in my own skin, clothes not fitting right, being tired when I haven't done much activity at all and at the age of 31, I shouldn't be on 3 blood pressure medications. Food has always been a comfort and an outlet for me. After losing both of my parents to weight related illness, I said enough is enough! Its time for a change. So I kept hearing all the good things about RNY gastric bypass surgery and decided to do my own research. Well, as of today, March 20, 2013, I am 8 days post op and feeling pretty good. I am just so glad that I have found a community of people that are going through or have gone through what I am. I hope to encourage and be encouraged. :) Its not going to be an easy road but in the end, it will be well worth it!!!!!! :)
