whitneyd
Well, my name is Whitney, I'm 20 years old and yes, I'm obese. I have always been on the bigger side as a kid. I've dieted for as long as I can remember, and nothing has ever stuck for me. In 2006 I was able to lose 50lbs but I struggled tryin to get past that point but for 3 months it stuck at 3 months so I def. was discouraged and let myself go. So now, after a 2 yr battle and fighting with the insurance co. I have finally been approved. Ironically my surgeon went to college with my aunt so go me lol. Despite me being obese, I've always been active, but having low motabalism and both my parents being big doesn't help much. I rodeo, like barrel racing and pole bending etc. etc., through out high school I was in guard and marching band, my senior year I was 1 of 3 captains (I was the flag captain and we had a dance and rifle captian)but the other two left so I was the remaining captain. I enjoying going on bike rides, doing things outside. I have an amazing bf of almost 2 and a half yrs and he basically worships the ground I walk on. Not even kidding, he thinks everything I do is just wonderful. I don't know what I'd do without him, he's always been my #1 supporter (besides my mom lol) and thinks that no matter what, I'm the most beautiful person ever. I love him to death and I thank god that I have someone like him, I think it'd be alot harder had I not had him through this whole process.
