Hmm my story, lets start of saying I am the fad diet guru. They work, but as soon as you stop....up up up the weight goes. I have done everything from Weight Watchers, Atkins, Dukan, and even Phentermine. My weight has always been a variable. And about 2 years went by and I was eating almost no carbs and got down to 199lbs. And then I met him....oh how men change so much. I got married and started to fry almost everything. Eating out was a must. The only thing is he was thin and just got out of the military, so he could walk up the stairs and loose 5 lbs. So we both packed on the pounds as love birds do. We decided to join a gym, he went in at 225lbs at 21% body fat. WTH. I went in at 246 at 50%. My weight started to impact my health my BP was out of control ended up in the er with a BP 260/180. I also suffer from benign intercranial hypertension and when they informed me they found new swelling on my optic nurse, it was time for a change. My husband went on a work trip, I joined a gym and signed up for the bariatric program with Group Health. I was accepted. I ended up loosing a lot of weight just with working out and changing my food intake. I got down to 215 and as you see its now 220 and I am at a slllloooowww stand off with the number. I am scheduled for gartric sleeve on 2/23/16 and am on day 3 of pre-op diet. Wish me luck.
