Way too much to tell it all! I have been fighting this battle all my life. So many diets, none of the weight staying off for very long. As I get older, it is harder to drop! After Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, Slim-fast, shots, pills and low-carbs--I need major help! My self-esteem has been beaten down, I seem to watch everyone else have a life with real relationships and I am getting tired of it. Even when I was married, I watched! Now, 3 years after my lifechanging divorce, I am ready to begin fresh! 19 days to go! I am the oldest child of three to a gorgeous mother and a handsome father. She was a stage actress and model in NYC when my father met her. I started on diets in elementary school, having issues with weight at a very early age. My younger sister and brother were both active and normal size--good-looking and "normal". And that is the way it has been... I had my only child at 42 years old, just when we were planning our breakup. The baby was a true Godsend--we tried to make it work for 3 more years, but we were destined. My daughter is my major focus on everything I do including this surgery. I want to be a normal size and be able to live a healthy, productive life. I also want to find a great man to share it with.
