I have been overweight my whole life, well at least from the age of 12 yrs old. I have always been the "fat" girl who smiles and laughs and jokes about her weight, yet deep down I have always wanted to be smaller. It has been a long journey and finally I am taking the steps to take back my life and start living for me. I want to be able to do so much more....for myself most importantly but also so I can be there to see my children grow old and have kids themselves. I like others have tried many ways to lose weight. But it wasnt until I watched "Half Ton Mom" that it make me wake and see that I HAVE TO CHANGE MY WEIGHT ASAP!! 
I had a phone number to call to get the OHIP process started but didnt use it until I saw the show. I also have sleep apnea and had never really used my machine. I have started to use that now as I dont want my daughters to find me dead. I am happy to report that I am on my way to being a better me and to get fixed. I am lucky I have the support of so many people. So now the wait begins. Luckily I have a DR'S appt on monday and he can sign the forms and get them faxed to OHIP. I am so excited for this journey to finally show people who I am on the inside and the outside!!!
