I have struggled with my weight for many years. Since the birth of my son 17 years ago I have had a hard time ever getting below 165lbs and after my daughter was born 9 years ago, I have not been below 170. 5 years ago I experienced a complete lifestlye change with the relocation of my job to NM. I feel that for the past 5 years I have spent all my time focusing on my new job (which is a blessing), my children and now my new husband. All the while I just slowly yet steadily gained weight topping off at 247. As I saw 250 fast approaching, I knew I needed to do something drastic such as a weight loss procedure. I had a friend who did it 10 months ago and watching her progress and lifestyle changes have been a tremendous encouragement to me. I'm two weeks out from surgery and have lost a few pounds...I ready for a fill and to get the show on the road!!!!
