AtiredCupcake

Hello! I'm Kisha, 20 years old and in college studying Art!
I've always been a chubby kid, at one point i lost a bit of weight when i was about 11 by how active i was. some things happened in my life and i just gained weight from there. i got up to 300 lbs in high school and i was tired of feeling the way i was. My skin had awful dark spots i was embarrassed about and i would run out of breath just getting into my bed and it really sucked. i was originally suggested to get the lap band but i thought it out and figured the sleeve was a better choice for me and it was. I am about 6-7 months in and i feel pretty awesome. i am now 213 and i can't believe what a difference 87lbs really is! But uh ok i found Bariatric Pal when googling issues or what i thought were issues after surgery that were considered common and it really relieved me finding people who are experiencing the same things and discussing it in a judgement free and supportive zone. But i hope to be a little more involved in the community and gain friends!
