Hmm! Well, I've been severely overweight since 4th grade. I was even borderline diabetic back then, went on my 1st of many diets. As I've grew in age, I grew in size. I'm a shorty only 5'3 even, so I didn't carry my weight well at all. I had a bit of a break from obesity in my late teens/early 20's. I lost about 60-65 lbs and got to a low of 180. The lowest I'd been since middle school. But, within a year just about all of the weight was back and within the next few years I had gotten even heavier. I reached my highest recorded weight of 260, got down to 230, back up to 255 down to 221, back up to 234 where I stand today. I've done this throughout my 20's, I don't want to do the same in my 30's.
I've been shopping husky (as a kid) and plus-size all my life. I'm ready for something different, b/c co-morbidities are right around the corner if I don't take care of this now. For, the first time in my life this past summer I had problems when I'm walking for hours at a time and I've started snoring, which I didn't used to and I know it would eventually lead to sleep apnea if I don't get my weight under control.
BTW, I'm getting the Vertical Sleeve surgery.
