Navytown Mom
My entire life I have battled a weight problem, even as young as 5 years old. I supressed my emotions with food and made it become the comforting friend that I have loved for so long. For years I made myself settle in relationships ect...because I felt like I didn't deserve anything better. Prior to weight loss surgery I decided I was going to live life for myself for once. I had the opportunity to have surgery and I knew that this would be my effort to give myself the kick in the rear to get control of my life. To learn to love myself and conquer my addiction to food. I knew that the journey would be long, and difficult but I know that it's something I want. I want to be happy with myself and I am working on loving me. To me this is just as much an emotional journey as it is a weight loss journey. I have to be honest with myself and work on my emotional issues to be successful in other areas of my life. I deserve success and to be happy!
