I began my weight loss journey 15 years ago! I have done Nutrisystem, Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, Atkins, South Beach, Cabbage Soup, etc. You guys know the drill! I was always thin. Had 4 kids, and still super thin. Then I had a hysterectomy. My metabolism came to a screeching halt. Have gained 3-5 pounds a year since then. No diet worked. After seeing pictures of myself at my youngest son's wedding and then having someone bully me on facebook over my weight, I decided to take control of my life again. I went to the St. Vincent Bariatric Center in September 2013. Received my insurance requirements that week and started the hoop jumping immediately. I received my letter of approval this week and I have sleeve surgery scheduled for July 7th. I am scared, nervous, excited, and overwhelmed! My first grandchild is due to be born in August and I want to be able to crawl on the floor and chase him around. I am looking forward to sharing my journey and reading all of your journeys! I know that this is going to be an adventure none of us will soon forget!
