"BREAKING POINT"

Flavia sending you hugs. Wishing you all the best!

I never really had a breaking point. I had wanted the surgery for a long time but I hovered about 10 to 20 lbs below the weight requirement. I eventully got fat enough to get the surgery...fortunately or unfortunately. I'm not sure which. Kallen

ok guys, I emailed my pic to OH, now it is up to them to post it... Needless to say, I had to be pretty plastered to allow anyone take a pict of me, so all ya'll are getting is my face from an office x-mas party. Flavia

oh wow thats a hard one cuz there was many things that contributed to my final descision. I guess the main one developing diabetes and the way i feel day to day, the aches and pains that seem to have gotten so much worse with the last 15 pounds or so ive put on. but then there was going to universal studios and having to force the shoulder bar to hook, i was humiliated.my husbands lack of interest in me.going to a job interview and not getting even a fast food job and feeling like it was my weight.sitting home being lonely because im so insecure, and feel like all anyone sees is fat.so many things that just added up over time. i went back and forth about this since i found out the surgery existed, but i guess it was about 6 months ago it all got to the point it was enough and i had to take drastic measures to do something.
