Hello I am new to your group and thought it would be good to have and give as much support as possible to others. I have been fat all my life and have tried pretty much, most of the diets out there, but that all came to a head after my father died last year from Lymphoma.
I had so many things going wrong at the time and diet and exercise were not working on their own, that on March 13, 2012 I had the Rouex-NE-Y Gastric Bypass surgery. It was not an easy decision to make, but it has helped with my health issues greatly.
The misconception of my surgery is that once you have it, that you don't have to work to lose weight, but that is untrue. I use it as a tool to help me make the proper choices when it comes to food and exercise.
I look forward to meeting all of you and making some new friends along the way.
