I have always have a weight problem but i thought i was fine and healthy. I played alot of sports growing up basketball,soccer,hockey,baseball and softball. I carried my weight pretty good for a heavy girl. I guess it never bothered me that much how big i really was. In high school i had alot of friends i played every sport there was but i was still unhappy. I knew no matter what i wouldnt be happy until i lost weight. I ended up signing up for the gym and went into like crazy mode. I would starve myself and then run on the treadmil for 3 miles and then go home and drink water. I thought i was doing great because i was losing so quickly and i was happy that i was seeing results. As we all know depriving your body of anything is NEVER good. I remember just one day bindging on junk food because i starved myself from it for so long. That was the last time i was ever on a diet. I binged my way all the way up to 350 lbs which is what i weighed right before the surgery i was slowly killing myself with a knife and fork. It was from that day i didnt care anymore and 20 lbs went to 50lbs which ended up going to 100 over a course of a few years. I ended up having the surgery a Feb 23 2009 a month after my 21st birthday. I was soo glad for that day to come because i could live my life as a 21 year old. Now im not afraid to go out or wear cute clothes that i couldnt before. Yes i do have along way to go im only 3 months in and 60 lbs lighter but that 60 lbs did alot. You really dont realize how big you really are. But im on the right track now just trying to make up for lost time by going out with friends to clubs and bars and going away doing things a normal 21 year old would do. I dont know where i would be if i didnt get this surgery
