Hi everyone I am Kristen
I am 37 years old.
I was skinny all my life till i went to college at 22 and was put on paxil and gained 50 lbs within a year. I have gained over a 100 lbs over that time. Most of the weight was gained after having my daughter 6 years ago.
I am pre diabetic
I am so unhealthy
After seeing my mom, and 2 friends go to Mexico and have their gastric sleeve surgeries and watch how successful they have become, I am choosing to do the same.
I feel a little guilty because for 22 years I was under weight and now I am very over weight and nothing I do changes my weight.
I feel like I don't deserve this surgery because I haven't battled weight my whole life.
But I don't want to die from diabetes like my dad did.
I am going to Mexico for surgery Feb 12, 2015.
