Hello Everyone,
My story? That's a good one. Not even sure what to say, but then again, I imagine most everyone who starts here feels the same way.
I just googled BMI calculator, and have discovered that my BMI is 60.6. That scares me because everything that I've read so far sounds like I'm at the top of that scale.
I'm 32, and I live in Ottawa Canada. I work as a bus driver for the city, and I live at home with my partner, and our two cats. I've been overweight for most of my life, and am the largest I've ever been.
For the longest time I was in denial about how big I am. I didn't see myself in the same way that others saw me. Every once in awhile I would see a photo or video of myself and would realize just how large I am.
About 2 years ago, I had an awakening. I discovered Reiki, and a whole new world of awareness happened. I realized how unhealthy I was. Since then, I've done my best to deal with the emotional aspect of things surrounding my weight and have tried to attempt the physical.
Because I am so far overweight, my body panics if I'm not satiating it with food. The amount of food that I require to make it feel full is mind blowing. The shame around secret eating, and the sense of addiction is overwhelming at times. It's to the point where food never satisfies me. I get no enjoyment from it, only relief.
I'm facing my fears around the surgery, and through the help of a wonderful friend I'm taking steps to make it happen. I'm looking forward to an opportunity to have my physical body be a reflection of my emotional and spiritual bodies.
Thanks for reading!
