Hi My Name is Lynne and I have struggled with weight all my life. My weight has ballooned to 275 pounds on a 5.2 frame - disgusting! I am completing my Masters degree , have three gorgeous children and I am only instrinsically motivated to go through with this bec of health concerns - I am diabetic, hypertensive . I manage all aspects of my life well except my weight - I am a complete whimp about surgery fearful of complications - anyone else have my fears? Anyone care to comment:eek:
