Well hello all my name if Jennifer, I am 34 years old and married 3 years now. No children. I sent in my OHIP forms a few weeks ago for gastric bypass. Haven't heart anything yet and no idea how long that may take. Have thought about this for a couple of years now. Wish I knew about it a long time ago as I have been heavy all my life. My weight is the highest it has even been. I think that the surgery is a risk I have to take no matter what!!!I joined this site to get some insight from others. My BMI is ridiculously high at 60. I want to have a family but the doctor says I need to lose weight. I feel tired and out of breath all the time. I used to be able to walk, exercise and keep up with everyone. I am very worried about my health. I don't have any co-morbilities but they could come any day now. I am a lost cause. I have tried most diets and exercise programs but cannot stick with it. Faster weight loss would help a lot. So those are my reasons for starting this journey. I had to wait to get a doctor and now am waiting for my consultation in Utica New York on May 5th.
