My name is Kristin, and I am a 27 year old engaged, mother of three. I have always been heavier than the average. I have tried not to let it affect my life or stop me from doing things, but unfortunately there are just some things I can't get over. I don't wear tank tops or shorts. I don't like going to the beach or any type of public swimming, like at parties or where there are multiple people around. I am a bartender and I like to go out dancing and to the clubs, but it depresses me a little when I can not wear the things I would like or dresses. I go to the gym, but my heart rate spikes so high and I get so tired quickly and I get discouraged. I just want to be a healther, better feeling person in general. I have a lot of support and people who don't feel I need the surgery. These people also have no idea how it feels to be overweight. So last year, I decided to look into weight loss surgery.. March 2012, I am going for gastric bypass. I only have my three workshop classes left and that's it! I am so excited and ready for my new begining.
