Good day, my name is Genevieve (You can call me Gen ;).. )

I am new here, I was talking with my mom this weekend and I realize that now would be a good time to talk to my doctor about weight loss surgery. I have been talking with my doctor for a while now but everything I try, I seem to fail every time, and my weight just gets higher and higher. I'm at my highest I have ever been.

Little back story..

When I was in high school, I was about 250lbs. after college I manage to lost 70lbs which bring me to 180 (yaye me). The thing is, I did it by basically starving myself and going 6 days/week, 2h/day to the gym. I was crazy for the gym and sometimes I would go on Saturdays so I wouldn't feel guilty. (that was back in 2010)

Since then, I met my now husband in 2011, and things slipped out day by day. I was starting to ditch the gym and didn't have the ''time'' or ''want'' to go anymore (to be honest, I did it so much that I got sick of it when I realize how I was not living a normal life while doing that) I was still not eating properly and if I would eat it would be only salad, only chicken or stuff that didn't tasted anything really..

in 2012 I got pregnant, oh hello cravings (that killed me, and my weight started jumping up fast) lol. I gained 31lbs (was 211, after birth) I was devastated because when I got under 200 I told myself I would NEVER go in the 200! I was always reminding myself that it was food a good reason tho.

when my son was 1 year old, I got pregnant again, I was still 211. I couldn't lose my baby weight (which wasn't really the baby weight, I was just eating!!!) then I gained 25lbs with this pregnancy (that bring me to 236 after birth)

When my little girl was 2 month old I got diagnosed with PPD and got medication for it (I am still struggling with it to this day, over 2 years later.)

After my little girl I was way out of control. My weight never stopped going up. The worse part is that I don't eat alot, just often. The last time I got on a scale I was 272, so I bet i'm even more than that. (Mind you, at 5'1, it's REALLY eavy) I have NO energy, never want to do anything, I feel ugly, I sweat by doing nothing, it's just crazy!!

I have a kangaroo pouch since having two kids, and now I noticed a smell from it. not even 2 hours after a shower I will start to smell myself (I don't think it's really noticeable, but it drives me nuts!!)

Last time I got blood work done (not too long ago) I was very close from diabetes...

I'm tired of feeling like this, I want my life back!!!

If you read it all, thank you so much!!! Just know it's REALLY hard for me to talk about number when it comes to the scale, but I think i'm at the right place to be able to talk about it
