I've been overweight all of my adult life. Did every diet possible. As I got older, it was so much harder. I think the straw that broke the camel's back was when my oldest daughter got married last May. I had a year and a half to lose the weight, which I did, maybe 15 pounds or so...big deal! I was tipping the scale at 152 after her wedding, which wasn't acceptable to me. When I saw the pictures I was so upset and always knew I didn't want to be that big for my daughter's wedding. I made a call to the surgeon two weeks after the wedding and haven't looked back! I'm 6 months post-op and 42 pounds down. I'm now looking forward to my second daughter's wedding next fall.
