Let's see.. my story huh? I guess it would have started back in High School. I wasn't exactly fat but I wasn't "perfect" so I was made fun of a lot. That started to finally wear on me. I started to think I was really fat because of all the teasing. So I started to eat more because I was depressed. When I would go on little diets and lose some weight I would be told by someone in school that I looked like I gained 20lbs so there would go the diet and the self-esteem! When I graduated I went on a "new" diet where you did not eat anything but have these shakes. I lost a lot of weight but when I went off it and started to eat again.. well, you can imagine. I gained it all back plus more. I would get more and more depressed with all the weight I would gain. When I was depressed I would eat more. I could not win! So throughout the years the depression got stronger, and more weight came. I have no self-esteem left at all. I hate to leave the house because I feel like everyone is going to laugh at the big old fat lady. I have tried just about every known diet to man. I am trying to have this surgery done because I want my LIFE back! I know this is going to be a life changing process and I am more than ready for it. I have been fighting to have it done for a long time now. I just hope this is going to be the time it actually happens. If not, I really don't know what will happen to me. I am not living anymore. This is no way for a person to live.
