Hi everyone,
My name is Sam and I am a 24yo mom of 2 boys. I have yoyo'd with my weight for 8 years now but it was after i had my boys that it got out of control. I was 20-30lbs overweight when I got preggo with my oldest son, gained 50lbs but lost it all plus 10lbs but gained 80 back in 6 months. After my second son I gained 35 and lost it all but now have gained it all back and weigh more then i did when i was pregnant :biggrin: I am tired of being large and so that is why i am here :biggrin:
I went to the drs on Monday and got a referral and my appt was set up for Oct 24th. It is a 2 hours orientation type appt. They are sending out a packet of info but can you all tell me what to expect and an idea about a timeline of events. I know it is different with all doctors but it would help a lot if I had an idea of how long the process takes. Will it be a year before the actual surgery or a couple months??? Thanks for any insite.
~Sam
