My names Chelsea but most of my family friends call me "Chels." I'm 24 years old, and mother to two beautiful children Jayden he's 7 years old, and Maya she's 2 1/2 years old. I'm a College Graduate and I am currently in School once again for Border Services (Immigration Officer).
I have been overweight pretty much my whole life, since the age of 9. In high school I was pushing a size 16, after I had my son at the age of 17 I was pushing a 18/20 pant. My heaviest weight was 238 and am currently 234 pounds...
I'm 5'2, and from what the surgeon said he'd like to see me between 115-130. I've been struggling with juvenile arthritis in the knees since the age of 10, backaches, & shortness of breath. Thank goodness I have no real health problems as diabetes, or anything YET. Dr. Nunn says I'm pretty healthy considering most of his patients.
My surgery took place February 26th 2009, I will be two years out very soon and I currently weigh 119 pounds. I feel great and so happy.
I am getting married August 20th 2011, and I am so happy. God is so good and I feel so blessed to have been able to have the opportunity to have RNY and have a second chance on life.
