    BIG ~hugs~ Tammy. I'm so happy to be your angel. Our friendship will get better and better the more we get to know each other. I'm blessed to have had you come into my life. =)

I am a thirty four year old mother of three and i am scared to death to have the surgery. I know that it would benefit my health and all around life, but the thought of being cut open scares the crap out of me. But the good has out weight the bad and i am going to have it done. I have a surgeon already picked out and his is the best in our area. For me being in pain all the time not being able to walk around the block with my kids or even walk around the store without have to get a goat cart is just enough. So if anyone has words of wisdom feel free to give it. I promise it will not fall on deaf ears. Thank you and God bless!!!!

Hi everybody!

It has been a long time since i have been able to write to everyone first my key board fried then my computer crashed. I am happy to say that i am back, and doing well. I have gone on a lot of interviews and hopefully i will hear something soon from at least one of them. I am so happy my angel has finally getting her wish for better health.

So i hope that everyones is well and i will right more as soon as i have time. Prayers to everyone and i will talk to you all real soon.

on February 14, 2007 3:22 pm
I have a plan I start school on Monday and hopefully i will get a good job at least give me the skills to get a better job. I am planning a trip out of town hopefully real soon. I need to start the the surgery thing over again my referell expired. So lucky me gets to do it all over again. I am really not looking forward to that but you gotta do what you gotta do. Thank goodness i have a great support with my angel Debbie and all my other friends on here and on my space. Without all of you i would be lost.Good luck to everyone.

My Story

My story is simple i am over weight and have always been over weight. I lost seventy five pounds before i got pregant with my first child and then i gained one hundred and twenty five pounds during the whole nine months and never lost it. and over the years i have just kept gaining and loosing and so on. Now that i have three kids and am in the worst health ever something needs to been done i am just scared of having the surgery done because of all the horror stories i have heard. Then again the good out weighs the bad and i am going to buck up and have it done. I just need a little support my family has been suportive i just need the little extra boost to help me get through this scarey time in my life. I have asthma that has gotten worse because of my weight and i have rashes and joint pain that somedays cause me to not be able to get out of bed. My childeren are getting older and it is sad that i can't even walk around the block with them. I can't go to the store without having to get a motorized cart so i can do my basic shopping. I think lossing the weight will give me back my freedom not only for me but for my kids and that will be worth it all.
