Well as a young girl and teen, I wans't fat! And no one in my family is fat either. But gradually I started gaining weight...until I turned into this! I have always hated it. I try to go to Florida with my family every year, but inside I hated it because they all loked so good...and i...well i just looked like a fat pig! Sometimes I didn't let them know, but I would just cry in the bathroom or where ever they couldn't see me! I know they all loved me no matter what I looked like, but still...I just hated myself! So this past summer my youngest son said "mom, you are beautiful just like you are, it doesn't matter if you are fffaa, I mean kinda big" and that was it for me! I couldn't go out and enjoy baseball with them and softball with my daughter. On family vacations, I tried to hide all the time...but not anymore! I had my surgery 4 weeks ago today and I have lost 30 pounds...I am going to have a great summer with my family this year!
