cecelovee 6 Posted April 11, 2013 Hello every body, My name is Cecilly'Cera most ppl call me Cece. I am 23yrs old && a mother to four beautiful children. A few months ago I was laying in bed doing homework, my then four year old at the time, says to me, "Mommy lets go outside && play." My response, " Not right now son mommy is tired." My son then says the words that broke my heart, "But mommy your always tired && don't like to play with us." It was then that I realized I needed a life changer. At the beginning of all of this I weighed 297 lbs. Today four weeks after surgery I an 254 lbs. The surgery has changed my life already && I am glad to find a support group to talk to && get new ideas from. 3 karlam29, momlambert and mzshay35 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wish you all the luck on a healthy New Life . Sounds like you're doing fantastic! My gastric bypass is scheduled for May 14th . I'm a little scared however, the benefits outweigh me being scared ! I have three teenage boys that I have to keep up with . I'm determined to become a healthy person on the inside and out. Nice to meet you and keep us updated on your progress !
