Hello Everyone,
My name is Dana and I am a married mother of two, with one in Heaven. I live in the Boston area and work as a Case Worker.
I have struggled with my weight for most of my life and have decided that Gastric Bypass is the right choice for me.
After my first child passed away, I developed a very severe eating disorder and became extremely thin. After years or starvation, I became pregnant again and gained nearby 100lbs.
Once again I fell back into my battle with Anorexia and eventually lost most of the weight. I continued this unhealthy lifestyle for the next four years until becoming pregnant with baby number three - gaining well over 100lbs.
Fortunately, I managed to avoid rehashing my old behaviors of starving myself, however, I have not been able to lose any of the weight on my own. I've tried every diet on the planet with no such luck. I then considered having weight loss surgery as a way of assisting myself with losing the weight in a healthy manner.
It has been exactly one year since I have began the process of preparing for Gastric Bypass and I have finally been given a surgery date for July 1st! Yayyy!!!
So, there is my story and I am looking forward to starting a new chapter in my life. If anyone has any advice for me, I'd love to hear it.
Thanks!
