why i decided to have surgery.
i gained fifty pounds within the six months before the picture was taken. i had been 200lbs since the late nineties when i had my daughter. i had dieted a few times on atkins and my lowest weight got to 177lbs but i gained it back. it seemed like my body just didn't want to give up the fat. of course i had a shitty diet and never exercised (i still dont exercise). i didn't want to get bigger yet, and i was so paranoid of wrecking my heart, getting diabetes. i already had high blood pressure (which i dont have anymore). my resting pulse was 110bpm. i think the final straw was when i could barely reach to wipe my butt when i went to the bathroom, and couldn't shave my shins cuz i couldn't reach that either. nevermind being able to touch my toes! i went to mexicali and on august 16 2013 dr. aceves gave me back my life.
