I am a single mom again(going through divorce). I have a wonderful 16 year old son. I have been overweight most of my adult life. I have always put everyone in my life first. I never worried about me ever. I played around last year 2008 with having the surgery. But once again I put me on the back burner of life. After my husband of 8 years left us I was devestated. I didn't know how to be single again raising my child alone again. I lost a few pounds due to stress. Ah, but as usual it came back plus some. I have reevaluated my life. I know now if I don't live for me and make the change and have surgery I will have a hard time with my son. I have been miserble for long......now I want him to be proud of his mom. I want to smile for real....no more fake BS smiles to get through the day. I want to take control of my life again. I want to LIVE!
