Jamie Murray 19 Posted February 9, 2015 I was at a sheetz today getting some lunch and in walked a family the mom and dad were kinda big folks but the son was hugh and looked to only be around 10 or 11 and i immediatly felt sad. I seen myself in this kid and also my owen boys it it scared me i felt so bad for this kid knowing the struggles he more than likely faces everyday due to his weight.and i found myself thinking about when i was around this kids age the crap i was put through. I said a little pray for him to myself and then i thought oh man im glad ive made the decision for weight loss not only for myself but for the fact i want to get in shape and show my kids a healthier lifestyle change and hope they follow.

bussomike 3 Posted February 27, 2015 I got sleeved because someone pulled me aside. I had already considered the idea so I think it became a gentle push. I'm 9 days post op and know I have made the right decision Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
