Hello all! My story starts here. I am 43 years old. Mother of 3 kids and 3 cats. I got married when I was 18 (much to my parents disgust...guy not good enough...) still married to the same man 25 years later. I have been over weight for as long as I can remember. My parents in my teen years took me to be body wrapped. Boy was that an experience! I had one of those fathers who said all the time when I was growing up that I would never amount to anything. So I guess I turned to food for comfort.
I can remember wearing a size 36 waist levis when I was 18...boy for me - those were the days.
I had my last childs in the year in 2000 and weighed 300 pounds then. Wish I had used that as my wake up call...now 2007- I weigh over 400...
I just woutld like to prove to myself that I can do this and be around for my kids graduation. I don't like to embarrass them. My 7 year old just started a new school this year because we moved and there is a boy there who is always telling her that her mom is fat!
She is upset when she comes home and tell me. This is something that I must do for me...and for my family. My husband tell me that I am sexy to him- just wait baby!
Diagnosed with sleep apnea in 2006- back pain as long as I can remember! Cholesterol- diabetes- need I go on...on yeah- can't forget the depression! that one got me in 2005- my mother killed herself after being in a nursing home for 10 years. she made me and my 2 sisters (evil twins) promise never to put her in there and what did they do??? then they preceeded to "kill" my dad...long story short. I am on my own and far AWAY from them!
