Hello everybody, my name is Liliana Im 29yrs old , but like to be called Lili. Where to begin well I have struggled with my weight my whole life..Ive been on so many diets that lost count. I cant say my life was that bad at least not my childhood due to my weight but yea it did get in the way especially during my high school years..due to my weight and not accepting my self I missed out in many high school events that I now regert not attending for example prom, football games and many other things that i wish i would of done..I know I could of gone but just being afraid of what people would think of me I never did attend. After many years gone by I kinda started to accept my self being a (bbw) or better known as a beautiful big woman..and I thought I could live with it but I tried so hard to accept it but just couldn't. So finally started to research about the gastric bypass and met people who had done it and were succesfulso I became interested...but because I did not have health insurance I was not able to do it ...so it took me about 9 years to actually accomplish it I finally had gotten good health insurance that could help me and lord n be hold I started the program to get the Rny gastric bypass a year ago...I had to follow a supervised 6 month diet before anything my begining weight was and highest 320lbs and had to lose 10% of weight which was 30lbs...finally after going thru all that on January 26 2011 I was schedueled for surgery from that date my weight was 278..so Im 1 month post op and my weight right now is 251lbs....and let me tell you the 1st 2weeks were awful for me I thought I was going to die and i had done worst thing ever...but now I feel much better and now started to think i done the right thing...I cant say it is cuz its not ..I have to fight cravings so they get so bad sometimes and i do get upset cuz i cant eat but i know its going to take time to get use to ...Right now i just started to walk on my treadmill at least 35mins and hopefully gradually go up with the time...So its time for reality for me next week I go back to work after being off for a month..
