36 year-old mother of three beautiful children. In a loving relationship for 12 years. I was married to the father of my first two children for 6 years and divorced , unwillingly, after that. I went into what some would consider a depression stage after that. I gained weight during that time from being depressed. I had also been on the birth control shot that I found did not work well with my body. I gained a lot of weight in a very short period of time. I worked for a long time to lose the weight unsuccessfully. After many years of working out without results and dieting not working as well, I decided that something needed to be done. I chose to have gastric bypass surgery. I had my surgery on December 11, 2008. I am approaching my 9 month mark and I am very satisfied with the results.

I have been on this journey of losing weight now for a long time. I finally decided that having gastric bypass surgery was the best option for me to …
Whats your goal to get to? I started mine at 145....then when I would hit that I say ok 140 and so on....I wanted to get to 125 but everyone has told me to quit losing...some say I need to gain instead of lose. But I am happy where I am..even if I don't lose another lb. I am also amazed....from 28/30 to sizes 2/4. Now I am to maintain my weight so when I go back for my 18mth apt in 5 mths I can get referred to a surgeon to take the excess skin off. I really need a boob lift...but not even sure how much that will be. Keep up the good work =) I am sure you will make your goal and maybe even more. I was determined. I had friends who had GBS before me and they all pretty much told me I wouldn't do well. Here I did well, and lost some friends over it. They don't even wanna talk to me. Sad huh?
Thanks for the friend request! I see ya live very close to me....Who did your surgery? Dr Shin did mine Congrats on your weight loss..Keep up the good work.

Happy Aloha Friday.. Have a wonderful weekend!
