Im 38 and I have been overweight my entire life. I rememeber I was 4 and I was at the doctor, I weighed like 80 lbs. It saddens me.Growing up I was popular and had a boyfriends went to both proms and did all the regular things teens and young adults did, but I was always the heaviest. When I was 27 I was at a party and a guy started shooting. He shot me along with 3 other people. My leg was messed up. I was in a wheelchair for 4 months crutches, cane, and a walker for 3 more months. After this injury to my leg i started to gain more weight about 10 to 15 lbs a year... well 13 years later thats 200 lbs....I started having bad health problems about 6 years ago. I went to a weight loss clinic in Ohio in 2007 and lost weight about 100 lbs. Only to find out I was pregnant 2 days before I came home. I was on bed rest for 5 months and Ive gained half back and this has to stop. Im having surgery to better my life. I have forgiven the person who almost took my life and I have forgiven myself for letting my weight get out of control, I have faith and I have to do something.... I have a supportive husband and I have 2 children a 16 year old and a 2 year old. I have to do this to care for them. My journey begins.........peace and blessings
