Right now it's all overwhelming. With all the what coulds. And the what you have to do's. But I can't wait. I wanna get this done while I'm young and it'll all be a bit easier. I've struggled with weight my whole life. Id rather do this now and just get it done so I can live my life happy and healthy. Its gonna be a rough few week.

I know the feeling!! I'm 27 and have spent majority of my life "big"! I enjoy things as much as I could but there have been plenty of instances that my weight/health has hindered me! I went indoor rock climbing last year and could barely climb the wall! I went to Jamaica 2 years ago and had to chuck half my photos because I hated how big I looked! I'm sure loosing weight will be like living in a whole new world to us! I can't wait until my consult!!!

I know! You cannot find one single picture of me where I was not overweight for my age. I feel like after its all done and the weight off. I'm just gonna be a whole new person who enjoys life more cause now with having smaller friends and of I go do what they do there's always a fear I can't. Like roller coasters swimming walking around the mall shopping. And by next summer going out in a swim suit with them wont be so intimidating
