My story well I guess it starts like most. I have been overweight since my adolescences. I watched my mom battle with her weight. At puberty my body start doing some funny things . My voice changed like a males and i start going facial hair and other manly feature started to happen. I start getting skin tags and dark spots on my skin . My entire skin color even changed. I was angry and really aggressive all the time. I didn't really develop sexually like most women do at this time. I was in a body that didn't belong to me. It was very difficult because I didn't share this with anyone. I gain a hundred pounds at the age of 14 in 6 months and that's when it dawned on my that I had a weight problem. But I didn't think it was out of control until I was about 21 and I have reached 340lbs. I became pregnant at the age of 23 during that time . I gain more weight. After having my son I found out that I was PCOS . I had lost after the baby down to 320lbs within sex months I was up to 400lbs. After that  struggled with losing any weight it felt like it just wouldn't come off. I start becoming really angry and depressed. Finally a coworker had the surgery and suggested it for me . It was the best decision that I have ever made.I have lost 125lbs plus since 5/09/2010. And I have another 75lbs to go . I have finally come to terms with my body and some of the male features have started to reverse. Less facial hair, narrow shoulders, even my complexion is smoother and a lighter shade without the dark spots. I have been blessed to experience this because I was at the end of my rope. I don't know wither it was the weight or the PCOS but I knew that something had to change and that I refused to live like that.
