I am starting my journey to weight loss surgery I will get to have surgery in Mexico in Dec. after years of yo yo dieting. when I was 16yrs old I met my husband and I only weighed 110 lbs on a heavy day. After almost a yr of dating I got pregnant with our first child and gained 60 lbs. and I only got back down to 140 lbs. after the baby was born. since that time ( almost 30 yrs ) I have slowly gained and lost many pounds. I have only been 140 once since that time and have never seen it since. My husband says he doesn't mind but I do. He thinks all I need to do is exercise a little more and I could lose the weight but I tell him it is to hard for me to exercise and it doesn't seem to help much. another little tid bit I carry most of my weight in my stomach so I look like I am about 10 months pregnant. earlier this year he told me if our medical savings would cover this surgery i could have it so I called and guess what they will cover it even in Mexico. and ever since I've been researching and researching that is why I am going to Mexico is because that is still the only place I can afford it. but I feel very confidant in my decision and can't wait for December to get here.
