I have been overweight for most of my life. As I think back, the last time I had a "normal" weight I 12 or 13 yrs. old. My mom was very thin as was everyone in my family and constantly badgered me about my weight 
making me very insecure and uneasy about my appearance.
This is the second time that I have visited the WLS route. I have had many *haters*, 
oops, I meant critics over the years regarding this decision that I have decided to pursue. My mom and my husband are my biggest supporters right now. My mom keeps flip flopping back and forth regarding the surgery, but it seems like she is finally on board 100% now. My husband wants me to do what will make me happy and healthier in the long run.
I just want to be able to enjoy ripping and running with my 2-yr. old daughter in the park with out feeling drained and tired all the time. She deserves a fit and healthy mom to be around for her, and at the road I have been traveling, I wouldn't be in the shape to do this. I also want to feel beautiful and confident and be able to cross my darn legs in a meeting at work! I'm tired of holding my bladder to the point of explosion because I am afraid to get up and walk in front of a room of people because what they may think or be saying in their minds about me. 
No more excuses, now is my time to take control of ME!
Please keep me in your prayers as I under-go this lonesome journey toward my transformation.
