I'm really excited to begin my journey. I shouldn't have waited so long, but better late than never!

I've been overweight since I was about 8 years old. I think I got bigger & bigger because I wasn't one of the kids that got teased. I was friends or friendly with everyone. Everyone always said your cute for a big girl, you have a beautiful face. And some people didn't think I was as heavy cause I have huge boobs!!

I was diagnosed with a herniated disc in january of 2010 and decided to get a breast reduction. After seeing 2 doctors, the 3rd one finally told me the truth. He said "I can't do the surgery, it's too risky, what you need to do is drop some pounds." It sucked to hear but I am truly blessed to have met him. He gave me the info to my surgeon so...

I looked into surgery feb of 2010, went to the info session, was excited... but got cold feet I changed my mind and decided to do it on my own. Well 7 months and $1000 in gym and personal trainer fees I basically lost no weight. With that frustration I decided for my bday I'd look back into the surgery.

Called the doctors office they gave me the numbers for the pre op appointment doctors and was on the fast track.

I would've had the surgery in late december early january but my doctor decided to go on vacation for like 3 weeks!!

So I'm scheduled for surgery 2/7/11 kinda fitting since I originally started this process in feb of 2010.

I'm 5'11

starting weight: 308 lbs

liquid diet: 1/24/11

surgery: 2/7/11

goal weight: 216

I know I can do this. I don't do things to take care of myself, so now is my time, and this is my year!!!
