how it began
Oct 24, 2009
well i have been heavy all my life and i have tried diets but i couldn't maintain.when i got out of jr. high i weighed 200 bls. i was always able to be active to a point but it really got bad when my parents died. i smoked 2 packs a day and ate like a you know what. i also have depression and that don't help either. things got real bad when my mom passed away on jan.24th of 2006. i took care of her for 6 years. if i can give some advice, spend as much time as you can with your parents. when their gone thats it. i'm 46 and i still mourn my parents. so about 1 year after my mother passed i met steve on the internet. we met on march 5th 2007 and he was my night in shining armour. well july 27th of 2007 i moved to nebraska to get married. well i went thru a bad depression over leaving my home town and i ate my self to 302 bls. well god gave me a second chance. i had to have a heart cath and come to find out i had no arterie blockages and my heart was in good shape so i decided to have a gastric bi-pass. it's a every day ordeal but i did it to be healthy so i could live a long life with my husband. i love him very much.
