My story....Let's see...Well I think my situation is a bit more tragic because unlike the typical thoughts of mosts
I did NOT gain my wieht post delivery. I have smaller more of my life than this blob I have now become. With my second child, Michae I weighed in at 168lbs. Post delivery I WAS 154LBS. I breastfed and weight had never been an issue for me. Metabolism was so high you could set your watch to my bowel movements...about 13 months after Michael's birth I went against my Ob-Gyn's advice and got the Depo-Provera shot. I gained 45lbs within the first 3 months(which was the duration of the shots effectivenes). But being almost 5'9" 199 wasn't soo bad. I finally had breasts (was ALWAYS president of the itty-bitty-titty committee!) and a little more curve ti my swerve so at firat it was kinda cute. No more olive olye or skinny minny jokes...My legs now resembled Tina Turner's and cleavage was a new found accessory to my style of dress. Well, folks the brainiac that I thought I was still tried to keep getting the shot. No periods, cont'd weight gain,depression, increase of migraines....tthis "magic" pill kept me from another child...NEWSFLASH: Abstinence would have offered the SAME RESULT OF NOT GETTING PREGNANT W/OUT THE CHEMICAL IMBALANCES.....Oh, to be young and dumb.
As months progress I'm doing 3lbs one month maybe 5 the next. then I'd be stagnant. I started starving myself not realizing I was sending my body into survival mode. In short I look up and I have gone from a size 4/6 to a 12/14. WOW....But the majority of my friends were around that size so it must be ok, right? Well after the holidays, none of my clothes fit. My fiance' and I are now is separate rooms b/c/ he is disgusted with my new "spread. Now I begin Paxil ans the weight continues" 16/18? Who.ME? Still b/c I am tall no one believes I am 248lbs. Since Michael is about 6 I say i can lose this...BUt not so people.
My body had become so chemically imbalanced from that shot. Diet and exercise weren't enough. Well long story short I've done it all: Mastercleanse,Mediterrenean Diet, Hydroxycut, Cabbage Soup Diet, Red Grapefruit Diet, Watermelon Diet, Water n Lemon Diet, No meat Diet, Liquid Protein Diet, Morningstar/Soy Diet (Soy gave me darn tumors n cysts had to have surg. 2007 to have teratoma cysts evicted from my body and left ovary removed!),Xenedrine, Hoodia, Leptopril, Lipozene, Relacore Daytime & Relacore PM, Hot Rocks, Yellow Jackets, Weight Watchers on line, SOuth Beach Diet (food combos), Vegean Diet, 50 Milion Pound Challenge 10k steps a day, Diet Food, Lean Cuisine Diet FOOD, ETC.....Get my drift? My doggone body was so out of whack until I would lose 30 gain back more lose 20 gain back 25 up and down up and down.
Now here I stand at a whopping 274 with a BMI of 41.7 , TYPE II DIABETES, HYPERTENSION,DEPRESSION,SLEEP APNEA, GERD, ECT...and enough is enough. I AM LADY D and the D now stands for ; DEMANDING TO GET MY HEALTH AND LIFE BACK! PEOPLE LET'S DO THIS! WE DESERVE BETTER! LOVE & SUPPORT YO ALL!
