I have been fat all my life. Except for the very few times that i have struggled down to a relatively normal weight.
All of my family has weight issues. I have tried WW at least four times, Jenny Craig, medically supervised diets, abused laxatives and just am unable to keep it off.
I have a loving and patient husband. He fears for my health. I have had dual knee replacements and back surgery, gall bladder removed and the usual female operation. I want my life back. I want to travel and not worry about fitting in the seat, i want to garden and not be out of breath. I want to swim, and walk and bike again.
My relationship with food has been a love hate relationship all along. I remember at 12 my Mom taking me to Weight Watchers.
I remember crying every time i went due to embarassment.
I dont want to hide anymore. I want to live. I want people to not look at me in disdain or worse not see at me at all.
I am going on a journey. See you along the way.
