Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Angela. I'm 38 and a mother of 2 wild boys ages 3 & 8. I have been in poor health for many years. I started this journey actually last February. But my husband lost his job in May 2015 and I had to stop after losing all my pre-surgery weight. However, I ended up having a very rough winter and put back on the weight plus 100 lbs. So at 537 lbs., I started looking at getting surgery again. I have lost all but 12 lbs. (I'm currently at 495 lbs.) and I have one more green light for surgery on October 10th with the dietician. Next month I can see the surgeon. Hopefully I can get my surgery scheduled for the beginning of December. I am looking to get DS done. But I have already noticed small changes just from the 42 lbs. I have been able to use!
