I am not even sure how to give you "my story"..... I was a pretty normal child size wise until I hit puberty, at that point it was all over with! I am sure that I was never as big as I thought that I was.... but being a size 12 when you mother is a size 4 and all your friends are the same makes you feel like you stick out like a sore thumb. I stayed between a size 12 and 14 until I discovered drugs in my late teens...of course not a good idea in the least, but I got super thin, but at the same time it ruined my metobolic system so when I got sobber I gained all the weight back plus a few extra pounds. I then got pregnant and got up to 264.... I lost most of the "baby weight" but never won the battle with food. It took a few years but I gained until I was up to 257, it was at this point that I just couldn't do it anymore! I have a husband who loves me no matter what my weight, but I want this for me....I want to live a happy healthy life with my children and my husband! They are amazing and I would hate to not be there to watch them grow.... So that is why I choose to have surgery......
