I truly believe that I wouldn’t be able to go through this process with out the support and financial backing of my mother and boyfriend. As I have mentioned in previous blogs I have struggled with my weight since adolescents, basically when I started puberty. I have always carried my weight well. People would never guess that I am carrying 248 lbs on a 5’7 medium –large built frame. My boyfriend is some what of a gym guru who loves to work out and to be in shape. I am blessed that he has never made me feel uncomfortable or complained about my weight. He is looking forward to a healthier me and is even doing the liquid diet with me. I haven’t told my immediate family (besides mom), co-workers or friends that I was having the procedure done. I want to only be surrounded by people who truly support me and are offering their unconditional love and understanding. All others will just have to be curious and keep on guessing! :thumbup:
