I've been struggling with my weight for 25 years.  I've tried every diet there is and been successful at many for a time. The weight has gradually gone up every year and my health has suffered.  I have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and bad knees. My self esteem is very low and I feel myself withdraw from life.  At last I got the support of my husband to check into the proceedure and I made an appointment the next day to begin the process. I attended classes on good nutrition and exercise. and have learned a lot. Finally the approval came from the insurance and the surgery date was set.  I had the surgery done Sept. 8th and today is day 6 post-op.
