Hi world, my name is Raina im 21yrs old. I currently moved to lawton, Oklahoma from Hampton Virginia. Im in my second year of college. I currently attend Cameron University, my major is music and my minor is theatre. However, I am a pluz size female i currently weigh 330 pounds. Ive been a heavy set female all of my life which means I dont know what its like being small or feeling light. My weight gain recently has come from stress,and depression. I am one of those individuals you would call an"emotional hog" because i would eat based on hoe my feelings are throughout the day. At times I overeat and know its not healthy for me, yet i do it because it satisfies my emotions for only a minute. In some cases I used to telll myself that " I dont want to get smaller," or " I like being a big girl."  Yet deep down inside my heart I didnt like how I looked or felt. I always carry around this atttitude on my shoulders because of my size. I would get upset very easily and take my anger out on some ones just because of my size. There isn't a day that goes by without me getting upset and getting emotional about my weight. Still I keep my head up and cover it up wit little sayings like" girl i might be big but im beautiful." !"

LOVING YOU!!!
Loving yourself is one of the most important things about being who you are. No matter what the size is from 0-26 LOVE YOURSELF!!!. Todays societ mistakens beauty as being the prettiest face or the perfect breast with the perfect butt, yet beauty comes with in. just remember when you feel that you cant do some thing because of your outter apprence. Yes, surgery may be a tool to help is on the outside yet no one can change us on the inside. Keep in mind that " I LOVE MYSELF FOR WHO I AM ON THE INSIDE" because inner beauty is outter beauty. LOVE YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!

Wow I have exactly two weeks until the action begins. To be honest with you Im not nervous at all. Im not sure if i should be or mentally my brain is telling me eveything will be okay. I dont know!!!! I start my liquid diet on monday. The liquid diet will be hard for me cause im so used to eating what ever when ever but i guess this is what you you have to do in order to be healthy and that is to make SACRIFICES!*!*!*!*!!
