So let me tell you a little bit about myself: My name is Andressa and I am a 23 years old Brazilian woman.

I have always been a little overweight but things started to get out of hand when I was at the University. I tried everything during all those years, including taking pills and the gastric balloon.

After that things just got worse and I started eating like a maniac, and the more I ate the more depressed I get and thus I would eat even more! It was a vicious cycle that I couldn’t see the end so I decided to seek help and started therapy. We’ve been working on the way I eat for about 6 months and I managed to get my “food parties” from every day to twice a week.  With that I gained the confidence I needed to do the surgery because I’ve seen that I can do it!!

Sure that now that I am just waiting for the insurance to give me the ok to schedule the date I am getting more nervous and my biggest fear is not being able to lose all that I have to in order to feel beautiful.

I am just so sick and tired of feeling sorry for myself and I just wanna take control of my life and look at the mirror and think: Ow that dress looks awesome in you!

Anyway I will try and right in the blog session because it is kinda liberating being able to talk about that subject without the fear of being judged because I know that here people will understand what I am going through and won’t think that I just don’t have self-control.

 

Talk to you soon J
