I’ve been fat my whole life. I can remember my mother taking me to nutritionists and weight watchers starting at about 8 years old. As a young adult I’ve lost and gained the same 50lbs, and then some, over and over. Everyday I wake up hopeful and attempt to take control of my weight and almost everyday I fail. I’m tired of failing, and I’m tired of living life as an observer. I am just not having the fun I see my friends having and wishing I could have. I see my mother and other relatives suffer and even die from obesity related diseases. I just turned 30, and I have started the process towards weight loss surgery. I have always been against it ( I know 2 people who have died as a result of the surgery) but I feel like I am at a point in my life where I don’t have a choice. I am still young and want to be healthy and happy. I have never been able to stick to a weight loss plan, yet I am excited at the possibility of doing something that will work. My friends and family are all supportive (some seem even relieved).
I finally had my rebirthday on July 10. Feeling pretty great.
