Like every1 else here there's many reasons I'm making this choice. 1. Every brother or sister I have has a fat joke or nickname for me n yes they also use them in public 2. my 6 year old niece asking me "titi why are you fat, can I see your belly giggle?" N that was also in public 3. Being a disappoint ment and embarrassment 2 my family drove me 2 depression. Making me feel so alone. 4. I cry when I go clothes shoping... Neva could walk in a store pick something I like and having it fit... I only have 1 bag of clothes that I wear all year round for 4 years 5.can't even look. In a mirror or have another person take a picture of me with out me wanting 2 hide 6. My health problems are getting so bad I can't run nor move quickly, I use to speed walk with my mother n now I slow her down, cause of my knees. 7.I would love 2 go 2 the lake n not sleep because I'm ashamed of my look. Tired of being depressed or having every 1 tell me I'm big like I didn't already know this. I want 2 be more active with out having 2 stop every 10 mins kuz some part of ma body is hurting. 8. What hurts the most my family don't even know I misscarried twice, doctors sed something about my stress levels and hormones n I was already high risk n was put on rest n now they tell me my chances of haveing a healthy baby in slim to nun. My aunt had the bypass done n I did my research n found out about the sleeve told my mom n she jumped right on bored. She says the only thing she worring about is the bill and how much insurance will cover but she knows what this means 2 me... I'm 5'6 and 280 pounds... My mother is only 5'8 and 130... Thoes are just the tippy top of reasons I want this

Cant give up all carbs a lil bit of carbs is ok but u dont want 2 over do it... Your body needs some carbs... Which is what I was told by my doctor but protein always comes first n carbs always last if you have room in your stomach

What insurance do you have if you don't mind me asking

Im from bayonne but stay in kearny or elizabeth with my bf

I had a problem with my ex husband and my weight he was 5'4 in the military fit n Im 5'6 was 225 n going up... I lost weight while he was in afganistan fromthe summer of 09 till april 2010 and we split I had went down to 190. When he came home he was attracted 2 me again but I had already found out he cheated many times in our own home b4 he left.. you tend 2 find things when there not around 2 hide things but any who after I left I gained so much more weight same as u I just started my 6 month... My ex husband found out n was trying 2 get me back but I'm in a better relationship now with some1 else... Mainly what I'm tryn 2 say maybe he not that attracted but don't say anything. Srry just being honest some times that is the case.. After you lose weight things will most likely change, not the same for every one... But once he sees you lookin better, you will notice a change. Talk 2 him tell him how u trully feel and work things out... If you trully love him n he trully loves you your relationship will blossom

So im still waiting... I been wanting this for over a year I just finally talked my mother into me getting this done. She is my main support, my rock since I been divorced..
