Lightweight newbie!
I'm currently waiting for insurance approval for RNY, with Dr. Averbach at saint agnes hospital in Baltimore mdA little about me,I've been over weight most of my life. Struggling more so after having my first child in 2010, since than the symptoms of my PCOS have been out of control. I'm now pre-diabetic, and have been unable to conceive after trying for a second child for almost a year. (Not to mention GERD, keen, foot and back issues) I decided to look into WLS surgery after a co worker had surgery last september and has had aamzing results! Another factor in my desion is my mother who at 52 years old is dealing with a host of medical issues all related to her weight. I dont want that to be me.
I have about 100 pounds to lose according to my dr and nut, id be happy with 75-80....just to be healthy and feel better about myself.
I look forward to learning much more from you guys!
