Hi... I'm not very good when it comes to writing or talking about myself but as time goes on and the more I read others profiles on this WONDERFUL site I realize that I would be selfish not to least try.
I'd like to start by Thanking each of you for sharing your stories and inspiring those of us out here that didn't know where to begin. I think I've come a long way already just by reading what has been shared by others here on OH.. I so appreciate everyone here !! As most of you know, obesity is a very lonely place. OH has become my "out" when I'm feeling alone.. Truth of the matter is, I'm not alone and neither are you... We all have each other right here and I believe because of the support we all give each other, we will all come out of this much stronger people .....So again, THANK YOU !!!
I've been the "big girl" all of my life. I feel fortunate that in my school years I was never teased or made fun of. I always had friends, boy-friends, etc and my weight really wasn't an issue until my adult years when I started to become self-conscious and my weight started to take over my life. Food became my best friend and now that I'm trying to cut that friendship (with food) . My life has become extremely lonely and I'm soooo ready for a change...
I am married, I have been with the same man for over 25 yrs. We have two boys, ages 19 & 13. Thank the good Lord for them two, they are what has kept me going over the years... My husband, hmmmmm...let's just say he is very scared that something may go wrong with surgery. That's understandable... but really he should be afraid for me every day that I go on with out this surgery....I feel as though I am a bomb, ready to explode. My health has only gotten worse with age..hmmm, how does that happen...haha
Anyhow, I am ready !!!
I know and believe in my heart that this is that tool that I sooo desperately need to help me become a Healthier, Happier me :)
