fabolous
I have always been the big funny girl with the pretty face! I know there are many of you out there that can relate!! In 2000 I went to my Dr. and asked for weight loss help.. He prescibed me some diet pill and it worked. To well... The only thing I wanted to eat was apples.. I must of ate 5 a day. Then I started going to the gym. Every day if not twice a day for hours.. Heck I was single and I had nothing eles to do after work. I went from 280 to 199. And then I met my husband and he did not quit agree with me only eating apples.. Needless to say the weight came right back. And once I got pregnant and was on bed rest... well the rest is history! So here I am 31 years old, married to a wonderful man with a beautiful 3 year old.. oh and 295lbs... Im lucky that I have height on my side (5'10) so I dont look like I way that much, but the scales don't lie! I never in my life thought that I would be going thru the process of WLS.. I always thought of it as being the lazy way out and really all we need to do is eat right and exercise.. Well I tried that and it did not work, so I started looking into WLS. I have now come to realize that this will be one of the hardest decsions of my life and it by all means is NOT THE EASY WAY OUT!!! It is probably the hardest thing I will ever do .. I love going to the gym and being active but I just needed a little something (or a big something) to help me control what I eat! I dont expect this to be a cure all I just need that "tool" to help me a little or a lot..
