My story begins when I lived in Johnson City Tn.
As a teenager I was overweight and it all started when I was 13 and my friend left and so I started eating because of bordom.
I would exercise all day and get nowhere.
I weighed 350 in Alaska and knew that something had to be done.
My friend introduced me to Dr. Todd of Anchorage alaska.
I attended his support groups and on Augest 1st 2005 I got my surgry.
Life after the big deal, I am staying between 200 and 190.
I would like to loose a few more punds but I feel i am doing ok.
