so here i am posting my first blog. where do i start? Well, let me start by saying thank God there is a site like this. Sometimes when I'm talking to family or friends about being overweight, I will say, " you don't understand" Here I know that there are people that do understand. It's a horrible feeling to not be able to control something, and that is how I feel. I have lost control. I don't remember when or where or how but I have lost control of myself. Hopefully, I will be allowed to have this surgery to help me live my life again. I have been so unhappy with myself for a while now. I watch people doing everyday normal things and I think I can do it until my shackles remind me. When I say shackles i mean my weight. I forget sometimes that I am carrying this extra weight as heavy as three adults on my bones. That is until I try to go up a flight of stairs, or pick up my kids, or put on my summer clothes from the year before or look in the mirror. I don't know who I am anymore and I want to change that. My whole life I was "chubby". I always had to shop in the big girls dept. or stores. I didn't get asked to the prom. Boo Hooo right? I have to change this but I need help. That's why I am seeking surgical intervention. I hope it works out for me. I see all these before and after pictures and I must say that people not only look healthier... they look HAPPIER. Thats what I want. Well, enough of my self pity. I hope I didn't bore anyone with this. Talk to you soon self.
