Hello everyone, I am soo happy that there are sites like these that give people who want to make a difference in  their lives come true!!! The idea of having a family of people who are experiencing the same thing as me is a true blessing!! 

I have always been pretty heavy during my adolescents and then I went off to college and lost a tremendous amount of weight (I guess I was in love! LOL!) Well....... I had my son and the weight creeped back on me and then some!!!!!! At my highest is when I decided to do something about my weight!!! I was at 275/274lbs back and forth for a very long time!! 

I started to have thyroid problems, my back hurt all the time and I just felt that life was passing me by and I was not a part of it!! I have a 15 year old son and he was telling me that I needed to do something as well because he was scared that I would get ill and leave him. My husband was not as supportive and felt that tuff love would motivate me to get up and do something about my weight, it wasn't that I didn't want to do something, my energy level was down and all the diets that I did was not solving the problem for me and would result in more weight gain.

Attending the seminar for the wls was the best seminar I have ever had the couraged to attend, I am so grateful that I was allowed to complete the program and have this surgery. I hope that I can be successful and complete my weight goal, I don't have an actual plan of when I will lose all the weight, I just want to make sure that I live healthy and become more active for myself and my family.

I am a very nice person, if I should say so myself!  I look forward to make many new OH friends and learning as much as I can on this site. I wish everyone much success!!! 

Thanks for listening!
