I started struggling with weight at the young age of 13. Did every diet to man weight was up and down. Married at the young age of 20, by 1996 I weighted a big 230! Yaks! I had my WLS that May of '96. My life was changing so fast, by fall I had been accepted into nursing school. Well, now I'm in college and getting skinny fast. My husband felt left behind and would not move foward with the "new thin college chic, btw, 128 pounds. Didn't want to go out with my new friends and didn't like my new clothes. I look back and wish that my marriage had not felled. I had been sitting on the couch watching movies and going out to eat for 7 years. Now, it was time to live life! My divorce was final 9/11 of '07.
In 1999 life threw me another curve ball! I was graduating college with a RN degree and going to have a baby in October. Yep! Thats right! One night with the ex-husband and baby was on board! We never got back together. However, I met the guy of my dreams in the mean time! He was a young good looking doctor! I fell head over heels! We moved to Missouri and was married in 2001. We had our daughter in 2006.
My husband passed away in 2007 of a heartattack at the age of 35. I reached 186 pounds just like that. Diet Coke, cheese, and crackers all day long. Lots of wine! Lots of tears.
In 2009 life begin to start over... My first Love at the age of 17 contacted me on facebook that Aug. Funny, I don't know if I could of ever got the weight back down, had he not ask me to meet him in Clearwater, FL for his job and have a 23 year reunion! I had about 6 weeks to comb off 20lbs at least! I went back to eating the way we are suppost to! Drinking lots of water and no diet coke, wine or beer!! Worked out 2 times a day! Plus! walked the dog 2 times a day! I thought to myself Dang! why the beach?? how about somewhere cold so I could wear lots of clothes!! Then I thought, oh dear lord, my scar on my stomach...what do I tell him? How do I tell him that I got fat and had a fat surgery! Oh! I never got those plastic surgeries. My body is ugly..sex...what? clothes off?? Lights off!!!! Yaks again!!
The meeting went fine and I chose not to tell him I had the WLS! He was like, wow you eat like a bird!! Another good one was, wow! your a real light weight when it comes to drinking alcohol!!LOL!!
I had my plastic surgeries last October all at one time. Tummy tuck, breast lift, and lipo..Everything went fine but, that was ruff doing all that at one time. The belly-button needs to be bigger other than that happy! Wow! Finally Cool pair of panties!!So, worth it! Love the no extra skin look! I'm now at 153lbs. Looking to pull 20 more pounds off! Real cheap date these days!!! So, I sold my house in MO and moved to Tampa, FL with my kiddo's!
