im a 46 year old single mother of 2 wonderful boys. Life is crazy and hectic and most times i dont have much time to myself but we manage somehow to get done what needs to get done. i dont have much support during my journey because my family is not thrilled with my choice to have surgery. But they dont live the overweight life that i do so this is my decision and i have to try to do what i can to be healthy and happy. i have been overweight all of my life to varying degrees, but never this big. i started working night shift last year and i stayed awake by eating and with my sleep patterns went whacky[sub]. [size=5]needess to say it was not a good combination. Now im desperate to reverse the damage done and start living the life the I and my boys deserve. [/size][/sub]
