Topic: Welcome/Introductions
My name is Laura and I am hoping to help get the Katy Krew back up and running. If anyone wants to be the "leader", please let me know!! Until then, I will appoint myself...lol.
A little about myself, I am a single mom to two of the best little girls in the world. Katie, age 7, was born in Kazakhstan. I adopted her in 2004. Sarah is 5 and was born in China. I adopted her in 2007. I knew I had to be the best mom for them so I had to start taking care of myself.
I had seriously contemplated weight loss surgery for years, but it terrified me. When the series "Big Medicine" began, it made me decide to just do it. I went to my initial seminar with Dr. Davis in November 2007. I did all the required stuff, including a six month diet, and had RNY surgery in September 2008.
My highest recorded weight was 339 lbs (my actual highest ever weight was probably higher). When I had my pre-op appointment, I weighed 311 lbs. I now weigh 135 pounds. I have had no complications associated with my surgery and would do it again in a heartbeat.
I look forward to getting to know everyone!!
