Stae

My name is Stacy and I am so excited to be starting my journey to a new life. I have never been really thin, but when I was a junior in high school I was in the best shape of my life. That is when I met the love of my life and it was all downhill from there. He likes to eat and so I was right there with him. I did not think about him being a foot taller and much more active than me so it would not affect him as much as me. Fast forward 20 years and we are married with a beautiful daughter. Taylor is actually my inspiration. I do not want to be the fat mom anymore. Taylor is every bit the athlete that my husband Roland is and she is beautiful. She plays softball competitively and we spend our weekends on the road supporting her. Next year she will be in high school and I know that I will be much happier watching her play with a lot less weight on my body.  

My starting weight was 309.5.  I am still hovering around that, but I have really started to buckle down and watch what I eat.  No more diet soda and I am starting my protein shakes.  I am hoping to have my surgery early in June, but we will see what the doctor says at my next visit in two weeks.

I know that this will be a lot of work, but with the support of my family, I am really excited to lose the weight.
