I have been large most of my life. When I was a baby, my dad thought I was going to starve to death so he started feeding me biscuits and gravy. I have a picture of myself at 5 and I was still extremely small. When I started 1st grade, I weighed the least in the class and was always tall. We were weighed in front of the entire class and kids started laughing at me. So I ate to not be the smallest kid in the class and when we were weighed the last day of first grade, I weighed the most of anyone in the class. I was the heaviest one in my class all the way through school. My mom was always coming up with this diet or that diet for me. Nothing ever worked. Oh, I lost the weight but I'd gain it back with more. A friend at work had the lap-band surgery last year and she looks so good now. I'm ready to feel better and look better.
