I have always been a chubby child but one day last year I went to renew my drivers license and the picture on their was horrible. My face was so fat and distorted. I knew I was heavy but never realized how terrible I look. My cousin is also getting married next year and I am a bridesmaid. I dont want to be afraid anymore of what dress I can and cant wear. Weight has ruined my life for so many years. It is time I took control of my life. I have two daughters one of which is chunky. I am making a lifestyle change for all of us. I dont want her to follow in my footsteps. Thank god I dont have any medical problems due to my weight. I just lost 36 pounds thanks to the six months of nutrition you need prior to surgery. I am ready to be happy and to start living my life. I owe it to myself and my family.
