But before my first child I weigh 157 and felt great ,but now I can't even get out of bed I struggle to do everything even my sex life with my husband sucks . I just want to make sure I'm here for a long time for my ill boys and I can't wait for my husband to see the new me I'm going thru the nix lap and hospital with dr.wright in San Antonio tx and tomorrow I go to my first visit to start my 6 month diet which my insurance requires so I guess I will be have my surgery in the end of June I can't wait to start and get to the old me I know it will be worth while.

Good luck on your journey.

Good luck! It's totally worth it.

I think it is the thing I ever did for myself!

Good Luck and hang in there, don't give up on your quest. I had to do 6 month supervised nutrition for my insurance company as well. I get anded next week and can not wait. STick with it and do everything your doctor says and you will do great.

Best decision you ever made! For you and your family!

Congrats girl on taking this step!! I'm young like you too..and althought I don't have kids yet, I want to get healthier so that some day I can have healthy kids! and obviously I want to get my life back too and be healthy!! I had to do the 6 month diet as well..and damn it went fast! You'll have tough moments throughout the journey but just remind yourself why your doing this!! A healthier happier you!! Good luck!!!

Good luck with your journey, I myself am a mother of two (9&2) and I can't run around with the two year old like I used to with the nine year old! I commend you for taking the steps needed in order to give yourself and your family a better longer healthier life!
