Hello everyone!!
Im so glad to be here with all this support around me..Ok so here is my story. I have been overweight all of my life, and when I say all my life I mean that!! I was 200lbs at the age of 12 and it got worse from there. I have tried every diet known to man and I have failed at everyone of them. I wasnt the type of FAT person to sit around and feel sorry for myself or say that I cant loose weight,or Im just gonna live with being this size. I knew that God did not put me on this earth to be unhealthy with a ton of health issues. So May 2010 I decided to make a change!! I made the appt on June 2nd so I could have a second chance at life. I got mixed feelings from my family but I was determined to go through with this. I love to excersice but I ate so much it was like I didnt do anything but sit on the couch!! July 29th 2010 was my surgery day and the start of my new life and I havent looked back since. I have a long journey to go but I am willing to stay in the fight and finish. My starting weight the day of surgery was 281 and Im only 5'3 so I am pretty big..my highest weight was 331 but I managed to excersice and eat right to get that weight off. My goal weight would be about 135-145!! With your help and determination I know I will not fail!!
