My story of obesity begins at a very early age in life. I was 13 when i became pregnant with my first child. With that pregnancy i gained 88 lbs. Prior to that i was always considered "big boned" but never obese. I remember the devastation i felt when the doctor said those horrible words to me. young lady, "your obese and need to do something about it now." What the was, i had no idea.
I struggled through pregnancies and diets trying to control my weight for 25 yrs. I have been on every diet known to man and even created my own that i thought might work. As my body aged, exercising became painful and much more difficult. I began considering surgery abut 2 years ago. I thought i could do it without help and quickly disregarded any thought of such a drastic matter.
Today i am desperate. I am at an all time high of 312 pounds and willing to do whatever i have to do live a healthier life. I want to watch my grandchildren grow and enjoy the years ahead with the love of my life. I have waited years to find someone like Her, and i am often restricted in doing the things we enjoy, simply because i am to large, or unhealthy. I want to walk holding Her hand in the park, or take the grand kids to the zoo and be able to make it through the day. I want energy and clothes that don't cut me in half. I want to tie my shoes and breathe at the same time.
I thank everyone of you that read this for sharing your stories. For it has given me hope. Hope i never had.
