Hi my name is Missy. I have been overweight my entire life. I can not remember when I ever could shop in the "in" fashion clothing stores. Gradually I have gotten tried of people telling me that I hide my weight well. I just want to look good the way I want to feel. When I was in high school I played softball and cheerleading. I was a very active child and now I'm a new mom and the weight from all those years fuses to go away. Even playing sports it didn't go anywhere. That's why I feel obesity is genetic. My family is overweight and grandparents are as well.
From growing up with name calling, crappy clothing, and horrible social situations has killed my self-esteem. Now I'm 25 and turned my cheek from everything. Meaning my weight, health, mirrors, arrogant people, and amusement parks. Things I know will hurt when the days end, I refuse to do. My marriage is now suffering from my weight and so is my relationship with my son. My son is turning a year old and I'm now having a hard time taking him up and down the stairs. I don't want to fall with him in my arms. Plus, if I don't know how to eat right, how am i going to raise him to eat right? I don't want my son being overweight because of my mistakes. This is why in June or July I will be having the gastric bypass. Hopefully, then I will be more capable of dealing with my life and how I will raise my son.
