Rebirthday!

[Rickie Brovage 3]

Hi I'm Rickie I'm 36 years old, single, and with no children. I had my Gastric Bypass on Feburary 7th of 2014. I call it my rebirth day. I have had issues with weight almost my entire life. I have Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome, and while I can't blame everything on that; I believe it is a big contributor to the weight. I also have diabetes,sleep apnea, and thyrhoid issues. Not exactly conducive to weight loss..

In May of 2013 I started working with a company whose insurance covered wls. I started my journey on September 4 of 2013 weighing 354.

Now that I have had the bypass, I am not looking back.

Congrats! it is by far the best decision I have ever made for myself! I am already seeing a difference in the way i feel, I am off of three medications! My clothes are already fitting differently, and I feel amazing!

How do you feel? I'm only a few weeks post op and already I feel great:) I can't wait until the weight really starts to fall off!
