mystcbsct

Hi all, i am researching currently. I have been overweight most of my life and remember being self conscious of my size even in elementary school. Anyway I think my highest I was around 250 during pregnancies and lowest I lost 50 or so lbs by working out and changing diet before I got married and got down to about 170. I am currently about 204lbs and really just tired of the constant struggle. My husband and I have lost 15 lbs together recently by watching our diet and I also have a personal trainer once a week. Anyway, I also have depression but wonder how much stems from my weight and self esteem. When i was down to 170 I remember it was the happiest time in my life. To get to my point... I am about 200lbs and a BMI of 35, I had reflux in the past, previous gallbladder surgery but no other comorbities I can identify. Is anyone else in my shoes that has has WLS and been successful? Happy? Thanks.

Thank you so much for the reply! Now that I am older I have noticed it has been harder for me to lose the weight as well as now I get nauseous after I work out. I never did before. I also have two small children and it is important for me to be able to be more active for me. I am looking into getting a referral to get a consult. How was your recovery? Also can I ask how old you are? I am 37 now.
