A New Start To a New Beginning
Dec 24, 2008
My name is Tracie and I’m 33 years old. I, like most of you, have been overweight most of my life. I have said in the past that I would never have a gastric bypass because I thought it was too drastic and I believed that I could lose the weight without it. Well, I have changed my mind. I have been doing a lot of research and soul searching, and I have decided that this is the right thing for me to do and I believe I will do great with it. There is a beautiful, healthy woman inside me that is screaming to get out and I am tired of listening to her cries. I have decided to get the help I need to become the person I am meant to be. I would be lying if I said this doesn't scare me a little, but it absolutely terrifies me to think of becoming so heavy that I become disabled or might die. I feel that the benefits far outweigh the risks at this point. I am looking forward to that day when I won’t feel uncomfortable sitting in stadium seating & at the movies. I want be able to walk and not get outta breath, I don’t want to have to worry about fitting in booths at restaurants or worry if the chairs will hold me, I want to shop at "NORMAL" stores without the "PLUS SIZE" clothes. I am a strong Christian so I am content that God is with me in this. I'm doing this for ME. I do believe that “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” Philippians 4:13. I have started this site so family & friends can follow my weight loss journey with me!!! So wish me luck and keep me in your prayers.
