My story? Right.. where do I start? Well, I was an active kid. I wasn't big until I hit my teenage years. When I was around 5 through 7 years of age, I constantly stayed outside, my best friend who was in gymnastics taught me everything she knew so I technically did gymnastics. Things happened, a lot of drama in the neighborhood I lived in, so we ended up moving when I was 8 years old. The place we moved to wasn't so bad until I made some foes. Just some young bratty girls who thought they were better than everyone else, they started making fun of me because I was a little bigger than them, the teasing lasted for a couple years (shocking to me too that it lasted that long, that they actually had nothing better to do). They said things like I wiped the state I lived in off the map and worse things. So, I started staying inside and eating. I figured it was better than facing them and being made fun of. I really wasn't teased in grade school but when I hit my freshman year of high school it started.. Once I really started to gain a lot of weight which was around my freshman-sophmore year, I lost my guy, i lost friends, i couldn't flip anymore, and i got depressed. Then we moved again after my junior year. I finished my senior year in a different school. Honestly, it was the best thing for me. I met some really amazing people and I loved my new school and the teasing stopped. I had an awesome senior year. Although I was in a good place, it didn't stop my eating, that had been going on too long to break overnight. Also, I couldn't do any sports in school because of my weight so that added to my depression. Next thing I knew, I was topping off at 300 pounds. It just sneaked up on me before I knew it. I was aware of what I was doing to myself but I didn't care at the moment. Now, that I'm done feeling sorry for myself, I'm making a change. I'm having the Gastric Bypass. I'm ready to let go of my past and make a better, brighter future for myself. This is just the start of my story, the ending hasn't been written yet. I'm officially turning the page of this chapter. I can't wait to see what the future holds for me and for the first time in a long time, I'm not scared of it. <3
