Hi, I'm Shannon and I have struggled with my weight my whole life. To sum it all up - I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired of being FAT!!!    I have tried every diet, every diet pill and have been in every gym I could get into! I'm not going to waste a lot of time writing a story about my past miseries because in the end the results and bottom line still stay the same - I'm Fat!!

I started looking into weight lose surgery in the beginning of 2007 and finally made the decision about 3 months ago.  I have had so many reservations about it until I found this support website and several magnificant men and woman who are or were here for the same reason as me! - To get healthy & SKINNY!!!!!!!!  

I have never been more certain that this is the right thing for me and I suggest for those of you doubting or second guessing your decision to weight lose surgery to find someone you can turn to outside your family for support. I can honestly say my doubts and hesitations are completely gone because I can see myself being as happy and vibrant as those that I have met through this process. 

It's a sense of relief that I can say I truly can see myself having self esteem, I can see myself being healthy, I can see myself having energy for my KIDS, I can see myself taking care of ME and last but not least I can have back the person I've always wanted - just 80lbs lighter! :)

XOXO
Shannon
