Hello Everyone,
It is the start of 2012 and I am finally doing what I have to do for ME. I have been walking around this issue my entire life. And going back and forth in my mind. Trying to decide if I want to have this surgery, thinking, I can do this on my own. It really hasn't worked. So, it's finally time.
I am a single 35 year old black female living in the Orlando, Florida area. I am tired of being tired and alone. I want to do things, I want to have a family, travel, fall in love. I want all those things that most people take for granted. Its my turn now. I don't have a lot of support. I mean, there is my family, but they don't really understand what it's like being 600 pounds. I am blessed, I am still mobile to a certain extent. I am not trapped in my house. I still drive, walk where I need to go. As long as it's not too far away. I own my own business, back in school. I am making real changes in my life, just need to take this last step.
So, if anyone reads this, let me know what your experiences are, I want to know all the good and the bad. And maybe we can work through this process together.
