Hi! I found this form by accident while looking for more information on weight loss sugery. I just stepped on the scale today and was shocked. The scale said 280 and I've never weighed that much before.

I've always been heavy, all through school and I'm tired of all the pains and problems from being morbidly overweight. I've tried several different diets and pills but havent managed to effect my weight beyond a few pounds which I quickly gained back. As a last resort I've been looking into different sugerical options but I'm still worried if I'm making the right choice in getting a sugery.

Any feedback would be welcome. Thank you.

Welcome to the forum Rosiegirl. You have said many words that I could relate to before I got to the place where the gastric bypass was my only solution. I felt terrible about myself, by body was feeling terrible from the extra weight I was carrying for so many years, everyday I felt guilty about what I should or could eat and played a daily dieting game usually ending in self defeat by days end.
