My name is Angela I am 23 years old. I'm a student in college graduating on May 2014 <3 i have an 8 year old son who has been my motivation and my main reason to never give up.


Growing up I always struggled with weight problems. I was always overweight but i still loved myself and my body.... After my Son was born on November 29, 2004 I began to continuously gain rapid weight. I would eat very unhealthy and did no exercise whatsoever. thats when I began to dislike myself and it dropped my self esteem real quick. In 2008 I ended a four year relationship and became more aware and concerned about my weight (320) I lost 45 lbs (weight 275) with the help of a weight lost specialist (included pills, and b12 shots). in 2009 I got involved in another relationship which lasted 3 years (it ended in January 6 2012) in that last year of that relationship when the problems and fights were more often i became depressed i gained weight again i went up to 310 and i started eating excessively always hungry throughout the day, when i would eat (large meals) i would feel full for 20 minutes tops and would eat again. I had a couple of friends who suggested the Gastric Bypass and i did research saw a lot of before and after pictures I became amazed and i showed it to my mom. She paid for the surgery up front in Guadalajara, Mexico, $7,000.00 and just asked I pay her back 3,000.00 and the remaining 4,000.00 She said were a gift for my graduation from college. :) Now my self esteem is back i fix my self do my hair and make up and I'm beginning to feel like a girl my age instead of the old ugly morbidly obese lady i used to see in the mirror. I am happy and I know I have a long way to go.... but i will succeed and I will reach my goal weight!

That was a little bit about mee. :)
