HI!
I am a married mother of 4 children, ranging from 3-13 years old. We live in Missouri and can look out and see the Capitol, which is beautiful.  How did I end up this way? I believe started from being compared to others growing up by family members. The more you hear why can't you be like her the harder it is.  I have been dieting basically off and on since I was 12 years old.  My weight wasn't so bad until I started working in customer service at desk job for 7 years.  Then gained 40 pds over two years. Add another 20 pds for each pregnancy, and it just kept escalating. I have tried weight watchers, Curves, Phenterimine, Alli, hypnosis, working out w/ weights (by the way lost most doing that, just ended up getting pregnant though and gaining it all back...urgh!), done the diurex pills, aerobics, alot.  It all seemed to help orginally, but then of course habits would come back and so would weight.  My husband's insurance will cover surgery, so I decided to go ahead and do it.  I don't want to be anymore the fat mother to my children. I want to have energy and drive to play with them, I want to fit in rollar coaster ride w/o seatbelt extender, I would like my family to be proud. I would like to walk into a room and not have people look at me with disgust or blow me off as being a fat chick not worth wasting thier time thinking about.  I want to live and enjoy life again instead of hiding away.
