hello,
So this is my first blog. i figured i would start with my life story and hope i feel today. i am currently a 20 year old full time student majoring in mathematics and work part time for wegman(a grocery store) i dont remember ever being a good weight. i think i was always over weight. i am an only child to parents that got divorced when i was young. part of the divorce is where it went down hill. each parent would try and make me feel better by giving me sweet and treats until i was so used to it that i did it myself. my weight is completely my fault but i feel that might have had something to do with it.

one year ago i started looking into weight loss surgery. i did it primarly for health reasons. i have none of the health problems has of yet, but they do run in the family. and with me being a 320 pound 20 year old who can honestly say that i have tried everything i could think of i needed to do something.

going through the 6 month program was good and bad for me. i learned alot but i didnt stick to it all then. i sometimes regret that but i now know that i am here with my head screwed on tight. on January 4th 2012 i was sleeved. it is just the beginning of this adventure but i can not be happier.

WHat i hope i can get out of this website is help and support from people that went through this as well. my friend family and boyfriend are 100% behind me (for the most part) but they didnt go through and dont really know what to say or do.

so if anyone has insight and reads this. please add me and help me out and i will help you out if i can :)

thank you

and im so excited for this journey
