My Story

Jan 14, 2010

I have been large the majority of my teen and adult life.  I have not really tried to lose weight because for years people has told me I look fine.  After awhile that fine turns into morbid obesity.  When I was diagnosed with Lupus 5 years ago I did not take it too serious but one year ago I said to self, you need to do something different you have 5 and 15 year old and could you honestly say that you will be here for them in the next 10 years.  Answer is NO.  I had started to diet, nothing happened.  When I found out that my BMI was over 50 a morbid obese person something had to change.  Decided to do weight loss but before then I started to exercise.  That was my downfall - never exercised.  When I had a made up mind, I did it for 6 months and you can imagine the energy i had and it felt good.  I had started out at 332.  Surgery date was 08/21/09 and as of 01/14/10 I have lost 67 pounds.
