My weight loss journey

So i've decided to make a blog for my weight loss journey!! I've had SO many doctors appointments lately, but all of my tests have come back wonderful so far!! I'm so so excited to start this new chapter of my life!!

A little background. I was skinny my whole entire life, up until I had barton. It all went downhill from there. I gained so much weight while I was pregnant with him, and I haven't been able to lose any (and i've gained a chunk) since. I got diagnosed with PCOS, so that definitely adds to it and is the reason I have so much trouble losing weight!

I've decided to get a gastric bypass! Say what you want, I don't care. I've thought long and hard about this, and it's what I want to do! I want to be healthier, feel better about myself, and be able to run around with my son!

Many of you know, Bart and I have been trying to get pregnant for 4 years now and i haven't been able to because of my PCOS. Having this surgery will make my PCOS go away! So i will be able to get pregnant and have another child!

So i've had a million doctors apointments, but almost to the end! Can't wait to get a surgery date and go from there!! I'll put up starting weight and pics closer to my surgery :) Wish me luck and say a prayer! I have a long road ahead of me! So thankful for my wonderful husband who is ALWAYS by my side!!!!!

This is Bart and I TWO WEEKS before I got pregnant.
