Hello! So I guess I am supposed to put my story here but what is my story? I'm sure it's the same as countless others out there so here goes.

I am 29 years old, I have been married for almost eight years to my very supportive husband and we have two beautiful young daughters. I have also been overweight pretty much my entire life. I think the last time I was able to buy clothes in a "regular" store I was in like the 8th grade. I am lucky though because I always had friends and good people in my life so I don't have bad memories of childhood.

So how did I get here? How did I get to this point in my life where I am considering such a drastic step. Well I want to live to see my children grow up, I want to be able to run and play with them. I also don't want them to be teased because of how *I* look.

I am lucky though I have been healthy up to this point. I did just find out I have sleep apnea but other then that I don't have any weight related health issues. I feel like the time for me to take this step is now before I develop any other conditions thus making any surgery a higher risk.
