My story goes something like this, When I was a child I am told that I was fairly tiny, once I hit puberty, everything exploded...my weight being the only one that never stopped. I have been heavy my entire adult life and living in what seems someone else's reality. This can't be my reality. I look down and see my legs and my tummy and they dont look 1/2 as big as when I see myself completely in a picture...YUCK comes to mind.
I so desperatly want this surgery, and I am willilng to work at it and do whatever it takes to succeed. That being said, I have also tried many diets and failed, and not only have I failed but I have gained it all back and then some.
I have submitted my request to OHIP for for a approval on a Roux en Y , I am requesting that Dr. Graber performs the surgery. I have my consult on feb 3rd. and hoping to be performed on by mid March. Not saying that I would be wearing a 2 peice this summer (or ever for that matter) but I would love to wear a pair of shorts or capris and feel like I look somewhat appealing as apposed to discusting. I would like to by the summer emerge from my home, and be more active as apposed to almost becoming closed in and reclused. I see the way people look at me, I look at me that way. But not for long, I am getting everything started and the ball rolling to take back control of my life.
Iw ant to see my children grow, graduate and marry. I want to be there for them when they have children and grand-children. I want to start building great memories, not that we dont have them now but diffrent ones, like nature walks or hiking or boating, anything really.
well that's my story for now, I hope to add to it after WLS.
