CAL-GAL-IN-MO

I started gaining weight at age 9.  Prior to that, I was in the perfectly normal range.  For the past 45 years of my life,  I have done everything to lose weight.  I can lose weight, but never maintain the loss.  And, like most people, I tend to gain back more than I originally lost.

Programs I've tried:  Jenny Craig (x2), Weight Watchers (x6), T.O.P.S., Phen-Fen, 13 day fast, cabbage diet, adrenal diet, enzyme diet, Herbalife, the Daniel Plan, the Rice diet, Made to Crave program....hmm, what did I miss?  Well, you get the idea!  None of these diets/programs have led to a sustained weight loss and I've finally reached the end of my rope.

After a lot of research and consideration, I opted for the sleeve gastrectomy.
