I use to be thin when I was younger but when I hit age 11 I started to gain weight. The medication I take for my depression increase weight gain. I've been trying to loss weight since I was 18 now I am 27. I used to be on this meal plan that the Doctor from Bariatric Wellness Clinic gave me it was working but I had trouble sticking to it. I'm very picky about what I eat. I gave up drinking sodas or pop whatever you want to call it. I stopped eating a lot of fast food. The Bariatric Wellness Clinic closed that use to go to. I'm trying see what my insurance covers for St Elizabeth & St Joseph Surgical Weight Loss Center.
I was never picked on or bullied because of my weight at school except for one time in the 7th grade. when this girl asked me if I was pregnant, I replied no, are you because she was just as big as me. I was picked on by my brother which case me some emotional abuse.
The difficult thing about being overweight is the lack of stores for me to shop at for clothing! Some of the stores that do carry plus size clothing aren't in my size. Just because I'm overweight doesn't mean I want to dress like my mom. Other things I find frustrating about being overweight: not being able to go on rides that I like at amusement parks, being out of breath from walking up steps, being achy, tired, and in pain from carrying around all this excess weight, not fitting into chairs, feeling like you're constantly being gawked at and made fun of. Those are just a few things off the top of my head, I'm sure there are more!
