candace S.
My name is Candace and i am 25 yrs. old. I am married with no childeren but i have 6 dogs that keep me busy. My husband and I have been married now for 6 1/2 yrs. but have been together for 8 1/2 yrs. I am selfemployed and i love it but it can be stressful at times( most of the time actually ) I own my own hair salon which is great and i LOVE LOVE LOVE doing hair. It is my passion i guess you coulds say.
About 7 1/2 yrs. ago my husband & I were in a pretty bad car accident. That changed my life forever!!! It took a year to recovery and two knee surgeries. I also found out that i had Polysistic Ovarian Syndrome which was not so great. I guess i have always had it but the symptoms were trigered from the stress of the car wreck. I always weighed about 145 to 165 before everything happened but 8 months after i got married i weighed 305 lbs!!! That was so crazy. I did not change eatting habits or my activity but i ballooned because if the PCOS which at the time i did not realize. So when i found myself weighing that much i changed my diet dramatically and i joined a gym. I managed to get down to 230lbs but then platoed. Frustrating if i may say so.. That has been my life sense Aug of 02', my weight yoyoing. Now i am at 270lbs and i am sick of it. I have started my wls journey. I do not have a date yet but i have started the program i need to do to get one.
