Where do I Start?

Nov 30, 2011

Well I am approaching my Three Year Surgerversary (Dec 22) :) I feel good about myself. The fact of it all, I have always been a very confident person for I have always loved me. This has been a journey. After having the surgery, I went back to work in 2009 and found out that I was being laid off. It took me know time to fine another career and I begin working for another company but the insurance they offered was ridiculous. Could not even afford it if I wanted to. Needless to say I have been without insurance every since. My husband suffered job lost and went without work from 2008 - 2010. When it seemed like things were going to get better we had a Fire loss to our home in 2011 and had to relocate to an hotel only to find out that our home was not salvageable.   Our lives have been turned upside down but I am thankful that we are still here to celebrate life together as a family. I am thankful for the restoration that has begun in our lives. I am looking for avenues to find health insurance but in the meant time I have been diligent about staying on top of my regimens and exercising so that I can remain healthy. I am thankful for my support team and I thankful to have a site like obesityhelp.com to always fall back on and stay connected with people just like me.   I think after awhile we lose our momentum and stop posting and sharing news because it is not as active as FaceBook. But I tell you Facebook cannot give you the support you need when dealing with a sensitive like being overweight and the emotional and mental factors that come with it.   I really pray that everyone is taking this seriously. If you have fell off, no worries, get back on the band wagon and try again. No One can benefit from a person that does not take care of themselves. Nothing Tastes as Good as Thin Feels! Let’s get back committed! We can do it and overcome any obstacle in our lives. I DON’T STOP BECAUSE I AM TIRED; I STOP BECAUSE I AM FINISHED! WE WILL NEVER BE FINISHED…PRESS ON!
