Hi, my name is Morgan and I'm looking into having the gastric sleeve surgery. I have my first consultation with a weight loss surgeon November 25. I'm absolutely at my wits end. I've done every diet I can think of, exercised like crazy, starved myself, you name it, I've done it.
I'm a 32 year old female who at 5'8 weighs 358. :-( My blood pressure is high & I'm scared that I'm going to die young. I've had 2 miscarriages because of my weight. Can anyone offer me words of advice as I go through this process? I know this surgery is a tool, not a quick fix. I dream of taking up running when I'm at a more comfortable weight. I also do several workout dvds at home. I long for the feeling of not carrying around so much weight and having a healthy pregnancy once I reach a healthy weight.
