My journey has less to do with weight loss and more with getting my insides fixed.  Though I am obese, I first went to the doctor after it was discovered that I have a moderate hiatal hernia.  In talking to the doctor, I also disclosed my other health issues, including Barrett's Esophagus, Sleep Apnea, High Blood Pressure and borderline diabetes.  This revealed information convinced the doctor almost immediately that I should have Bariatric Surgery, specifically Gastric Bypass, with my long history of acid reflux issues.  I then began the journey that has taken me to where I am now.  I am currently a month out from surgery and ready.  I want have this surgery so I can stop taking the daily regimen of 14-20 pills a day.  I look forward to a time when I less resemble a walking pharmacy.  I am excited to see what will come of the new me.  And I pray that my journey can be an inspiration for others.
