Well i have struggled with weight issues my whole life. I have PCOS, Alopecia Areata, Hirtuism, Vitiligo (well i pretty much define auto immune). I was recently married, some day we would like to have a child. I had tried all kinds of different diets and programs and plain and simple i made the decision to go forward with this surgery after researching it. Of course i wanted my insurance to cover it and they wouldnt. I fought with them as i have on many issues in the past. I simply decided that i was not going to let other people have ownership over my life any longer and gave up. Well i wouldnt say gave up, i fired them! My life is much more important and i prefer to have control over it so i took matters into my own hands. Of course it was a huge desicion, i put my self in a very bad position financially, im strapped, who isnt? My husband and i will make it through this, because its important to both of us for me to get healthy. When i finally made up my mond it didnt take long. And here i sit 8 days out, feeling so-so(not going to lie) but happy with my decision and working hard every step of the way to make sure i am successful. More to come...
