My story started a long, long, long, long time ago. I can't remember ever not feeling like something was wrong with me. It would have been the way I looked, the way I talked, the way I felt about myself. This weight....ah, well...this weight has been the object of my self-esteem for a very long time. I've always known I was heavier than I should be...I remember a classmate calling me thunder thighs. That's when I REALLY KNEW. I lost weight several years ago. I had a few of the greatest years (about 3) of my life. People would see me and say, "Girl look at you!". It is the most wonderful feeling in the world to shop in the "regular" section of the store when you have never even been there, even as a teenager. And it's true-men do look at you differently! I believe I lost about 50 pounds. Funny thing is now I gained 70 pounds back. I decided to pursue weight loss surgery earlier this year. My surgery date is September 29, 2008. Here is my journey....
