My story is simply this.....
I have always been large for as long as I can remember. I was teased in school and I have thought about this surgery for years. After having surgery at 16 on my left knee for Blounts disease (extreme bowing of the legs) my weight just continued to come. Because I never had the other leg done I have been faced with possible knee replacement on both knees. I am now 31 and I have decided not to allow this to rule my life any longer. I have never been a friend of food and it has never been a friend to me. I didn't eat when I was sad, mad or angry however I did eat when I was bored or didn't know what else to do with my time
I love life and I love myself and I just want to be in that place now before time runs out. I want my happiness that was made for me and me for it.
I wont go into details but here I am...Seeking help. Any replies would be great as I am going to see the surgeon May 29th, 2012 and would like any tips on questions to ask. I will continue to post up until and after surgery.
Anyone who would like to comment or reply is free to do so.
