Well, I have been pretty heavy for most of my life. I didn't really start out that way though. I was actually skinny as a kid up until about the age of 10. At that point I can remember having to buy my clothes "husky" and always getting elastic style pants. At around 11 or 12 I went from about 115lbs. to 130lbs. in one summer and then it was just up from there. I peaked at about 265 at around 18 years old and then I worked a pretty physically demanding job at the airport which helped me to shed quite a bit of weight back in 1997.

Since then I managed to put back all of that weight and then some landing me at 315-320lbs. right now. I am in the early stages of seeking surgical options. I have been put "on hold" right now by my doctor (I don't want to say denied) but I am still going to fight for my health.

I am here mostly to get support and answers for all of my questions and also just to be able to hang out with people I can relate to on so many levels.
