I am 31 years old and have been overweight my whole life! One of my first memories of knowing I was big was my grandmother making fun of me during a summer lake trip and I never forgot it. I know she did not mean to hurt me but I never forgot it and carried it with me the rest of my life. I started thinking and wanting surgery about four years ago but I am not rich and had terrible insurance and it was not covered! Finally I found a good company that will cover the full bypass surgery and I went with it! I had my initial appointment with the surgeon, nutritionist, and psychologist and found out I had a few obstacles to conquer I had to prove I had been overweight for at least 2 years, and be monitored by a surgeon and nutritionist for 3 months I can't gain back any weight and I must lose at lease 1 pound a week. So far it has been fine I have been able to stay on track and I am at the end of the first month going into my second month and for some reason I am having a hard time keeping my brain on track! I am hoping this surgery will be my second chance at life!!
