Tracy24th
Hi Everyone out there! My name is Tracy, I am 32 years old, and I am on my way to the change of a lifetime. My surgery is scheduled for Sept 24th, and i couldnt be more nervous, yet tremendously excited all at once. I have been overweight for most of my life, done all the fad diets, the clinics, the doctors, and i just love food and love to eat what else can i say. I do have prisoner syndrome for sure, just knowing that there is so much out there for me that i cant get to being behind the bars of weight. Who wants to leave their house when every step they take hurts right, not to mention the humiliation of being seen by the public. I am new at this being social thing on the internet and message boards and stuff, but since i have been going through all this, i would like to help or encourage others on their paths to freedom, which is what i am considering weight loss to be, a whole new freedom, and a whole new life. I do have alot of family and friend support so i am lucky in that aspect, but i dont think there is anything lonlier than being overweight. I come from a family of thin people which is pretty ironic i must say, but they are all so wonderful, but who better to understand what your going through than people going through it with you. I guess i dont have much of a story, i mean same ole story that i am sure everyone has, but as a kid i wasnt to overweight so i wasnt made fun of to much or mentally abused by people. I think now its the worst, i mean i have noticed more and more how people look at me, or look away for that matter, but i just try not to look at people so i dont have to see their reaction, but i have faith that will all change soon. One thing about me is I never look in a full length mirror EVER!! only my face when i put makeup on in the morning, i dont even own one, if i am walking past a window i make sure i look the other way so to not make contact with this person that i dont even recognize anymore. I tell you one thing, I cant wait for the day when i hear someone say "your pretty" and not you'd be so pretty if you lost weight.
