Hi~ I am 26 years old and I am a proud mother 3 beautiful children ages 9, 4, and 1. I have been over weight my whole life. But I really put on the pounds after my first little one was born. I am at my highest weight now, 330 lbs
all I want is to be able to live to meet my grandchildren, watch my babies grow. I want to play baseball with them and be able to make it to first base without passing out! (LoL.)I want to grow old with my husband. I am ready to really live for the first time!
I just switched over to Kaiser. I have heard from allot of people that they will not approve me. But I give-em a fight for there money! My husband at this point does not want me to have WLS but I think he is afraid. He has heard allot of horror stories
----------------------------------------------
somtime in between all this
I Lost alot of my update's.... but i had LOT'S and LOT'S of classes to attend. and I Had to Push the ball allot with Kaiser to get it rolling!

I went to the last oriantation with Kaiser, it was long and they told me all the things i learned from All the Classes i took! but it's now out of the way and i am on to the last step in my WLS. I also did all my lab work and chest X ray and EKG , i just hope i can drop these last 26 pounds and get going ! it has been a LONG time and i am getting tired of all the things that come with Kaiser...So i hoping i can drop the pounds and get on my way!
