About Me

I am forty years old, and I am sick and tired of being fat. I have struggled with my weight since my senior year of high school, but it has gotten out of control since I stopped working to be a stay-at-home mom. I also have arthritis in my knees, which has been compounded by my obesity. I want to be a mom my kids can be proud of. I want to be a mom that does activities with their kids, not just sits on the sidelines. So, I have decided to undergo weight loss surgery. Up until recently, my insurance would only cover the band, but now the sleeve has gotten approval. My surgery is scheduled for June 4, 2013. Here's to a new, healthy, revised relationship with food!
