As far as my journey with my weight, it's been a constant in my life. I've been overweight since I was about 6 years old. School was hard and clothes shopping was harder. I got my first pair of jeans when I was in 7th grade...size 20. I first wore Lane Bryant in 8th grade.
I've lost a ton of weight in my life...I just seem to gain it back plus a little more. I'm excited to have surgery. The lifestyle change that is needed for weight loss can be acheived with weight loss surgery. I'm planning on a RNY.
I've worked through many, many, many emotional effects of overeating, binge eating, depression, low self-esteem, and low self-worth.
Only when I gained self-esteem, self-worth, and happiness with my current self did I know I was ready for surgery!
