Hi! My name is Vanessa and I am 23. I have seriously tried every diet plan, in the universe and always manage to loose weight, but then i gain it back double.  I have been overweight all my life and it never bothered me until i turned 19. I have great genes(so i been told), and thankfully my weigh distributes well on my body. I have seen ppl at my weight 290lbs and they look nothing like me.Being over weight has affected relationships, my self esteem, and the way i look at everything. I am an emotional eater and eat eat eat although i know I should stop it. I am the only heavy person in my Family. My mom is skinny and looks like my sister, my sisters are skinny, and my dad.. well he has a beer belly but hes not overweight. I had a consult to just do my entire body over with a PS in Colombia, but I haven't had children yet, so I'm kind not wanting to spend the money and then have to do a repeat. My boyfriend now will love me no matter what i look like(so he says) but i want to do this for me. I have a family history of diabetes, high bp, sleep apnea, and heart failure among others, and although i am healthy now i don't want to become ill as i age.

My realistic goal weight is 150lbs.
My medical goal weight is 130lbs.
My current weight is 290lbs ( my heaviest).

I just want to be a beautiful woman, with nice curves and a sexy attitude. I want to love myself and my body. I will have plastic surgery after i have a family, but until then i will just have to work my ass off at the gym. Hopefully this WLS will allow me to overcome all my obstacles in life.
