Joy B.
I've been fat since the 3rd grade. I can always remember being chunky. Now I'm just downright huge. I'm tired of being fat. Lately it's been bad because I'm tired all of the time. My feet hurt, my knee hurts, my back hurts if I stand or walk to long. I feel like I'm gonna have a heart attack if I walk up a flight of stairs. Life stinks right now! I'm anxiously awaiting to hear from my bariatric center to get this ball rolling. I know my insurance requries the 6 month diet and exercise program before I can schedule surgery (which stinks - dont they know I've already tried that a MILLION times). I was diagnosed with PCOS a little over a year ago. Weight is a huge factor with PCOS. I want to lose weight. I'm engaged to be married and I really dont want to be a fat bride. Fortuneately, he loves me fat. However, he is concerned about my health. I want to have children and PCOS makes it difficult...but I've been encouraged to read that after you lose a lot of weight the PCOS is controlled better and you can conceive. I JUST WANT TO BE NORMAL! I'm tired of always feeling like people are gawking at me. I don't want to be a spectacle anymore. I want to wear cute clothes! I want to ride all of the roller coasters...not just the ones at Disney and Universal! I want to be healthy! My Mom lost over 100 pounds 3 years ago on Weight Watchers and looks amazing. My younger sisters are thin and beautiful. I'm tired of being the biggest one around! I'm ready to let this hot body out of my fat suit!
I'll keep you posted....
