Lost from the Beginning
Jun 26, 2014
Feeling lost from the beginning...I'm new to this but feel like it's a start. Many times I've been on the band wagon of trying to lose weight. Most times I can only get close to 20lbs pounds off then it returns with more and more. Now, I'm almost to the 100 pound mark of being over weight. Many says they can't believe i weigh as much as I do, etc, etc. However, most friends usually refrain from being truthful. I believe its because they sense your pain and doesn't want to add to your problems. On the other hand, my mother has just about been to the brutal point with her comments. It has gotten me to the point avoiding her. Its a way of protecting myself.
I have a pending appoint with a WLS for next week. I've found my self up at nights just pondering over this site, the comments, experiences, etc. Also, goggling reports, success rates , the do's and don'ts and so and so!...
Amazing how being over weight affects ones life. Almost crippling and paralyzing to the point of being withdrawn from society and events. I struggle every day. Just getting up is a task its self. However, I'm trying and still continuing to put one step in front of the other.
For those of you posting, answering peoples comments and sending words of encouragements...keep it up! You're really are helping those in their "lows" of life. Otherwise, I wouldn't be finding the strength do do what I'm working towards now.
