I decided to have bariatric surgery because I was sick and tired of being sick and tired.
I have two children, Andrew and Molly.
At the time, they were ten and twelve and I thought
you know, mommy's sleeping their life away. I'm missing out on my own two children.
I wasn't living.
You know, I was at a stop sign, I couldn't turn left, I couldn't turn right
and I sure the heck wasn't backing up. I had done every diet there was, I believe I
started at the age of 13 with my mom at my first weight watcher's meeting.
And now, I'm living life and
enjoying it,
I'm working at a
fitness center of all places. The girl that exercise used to be up and down from
the couch to get something.
And I couldn't ask for anything better.
It's so neat to come to the support meetings
because it's like seeing my friends. You know, they were in the same shoes that i
was in.
And now we're all
so much happier people.
Don't stop yourself. Don't listen to the negative people. Stay away from them.
Because there's so many people out there that hear all the negative,
but they're not living in your shoes. I was in your shoes, and I hurt and I know it
hurts to hurt.
