I have been bigger my whole life. It's never really been that big of an issue for me because I know no matter how big or small I am, I am a beautiful women but recently I have started to have some medical issues that I think are related to my recent 30 lb. gain. I want to be beautiful and healthy. I want to chase my children around the yard, and play with them, and watch them grow up. But I feel if I do not do something about my weight now, I may never get that chance. So I have started the process! I made a doctors appointment for myself to talk to my doctor about my issues and discuss if I am a candidate for bariatric surgery!!
