A Little about Me..............My name is Erin. I am 31 years old, single, and no kids. I have been obese for my entire life. I weighed over 10 pounds when I was born, so literally all my life.
As a kid I was always teased and could never find clothes. I went to the same school for all my life, so eventually the teasing stopped. If you stop reacting they will stop teasing. I learned that early.
But enough of that. As I got older I slipped into my role as the funny fat friend and have been that ever since. I was fine with it for a long time, but as everyone moves on with their lives and you are alone, you idea of fine changes. So that made me start on the 1st serious attempt at weight loss.
My very highest weight was 375, but am currently at 348. I have done a medical weight loss for the past 9 months and lost the 27 pounds on that. This is the only time in my life I have lost and kept it off for more than a month, so I have started my journey to the smaller me. Since I was unable to really loose weight on my own, I decided to do the WLS.
I am really excited to find that skinny girl inside me. I have so many things to do, that I can't right now, because of my weight. I also hope to find some friends that will understand what I am going through. So we can celebrate and support one another through the journey.
