Me : Big Week Coming

on 5/4/11 8:26 am
I go to rehab next week. The Davis Clinic had been looking for those struggling after weight loss surgery for a documentary.. you don't get to struggling much more than absolutely hating yourself and falling into illicit drugs.

No one would guess looking at me.
No one has a clue. I started at 272 in a physically abusive relationship.. buying everyone around me with money.. and PCOS..

I"ve ended up anywhere between 150 and 160....  addicted to the big C.... In LOVE... but in love with someone who has more demons than even I do... and I've went from a millionaire.. to a girl begging for webdesign clients... and marketing clients.

My heart is still true. My heart is still pure. I still love life... I just felt like I had to buy my partner's love.. and wound up with a terrible chemical addiction.

The next time you judge the "junkie" in your family.. or on the street... think of how bubbly, happy, and just thrilled with life, I seem........

I eat fine. I'm fine with foods. My hope is that rehab makes me addicted to working out again.

Brandy, I wish you all the best in rehab.  That's a mighty big step you made just by admitting to yourself that you think you have a problem.  You are very strong as most people with an addiction, no matter what it is, will not, cannot face the fact, they are addicted.

I guess you are going back to Houston for rehab or will you still stay in San Antonio? 

Good luck and keep us posted.  I'm still in the losing stage (only 59#) but no one is beyond help at any stage...

Good luck!
