sterf
I've been overweight my entire life and i'm ready to make a change. i've lost weight on my own in the past...I think the most I lost was 30lbs before I gave up. I have a huge sweet tooth and a minor fast food addiction which I have pretty much broken now that i cant drive anywhere by myself (broken right foot)
My problem is I eat too much of food that is bad for me. I've never really been a binger or emotional eater, I just like bad food too much. I have had problems with depression but have never seen a doctor for it out of embarrassment. It is taking a whole lot for me to even talk to my doctor about WLS and I still don't know how i'm going to tell my family. I have a tendency to ignore my problems until they go away, but the weight has just kept piling on over the years and i cant ignore it any longer. I'm not even sure exactly how much I currently weigh because of the cast on my foot.
I want to be able to go to amusement parks with my friends and not have to make up an excuse as to why I can't go because I KNOW I won't fit on most of the rides. I want to be able to fly on an airplane without having to use a seatbelt extender. I want to be able to walk into a room and not be the biggest person there. I want to be able to go to the beach. I want to not have to check weight limits on things like hammocks or exercise machines before I use them. I want to go to bars with my friends and not feel self conscious because i'm the only one not getting hit on. I want to be a confident happy person.
