I can feel the excitement in your post!! Your getting married!!!! Yay!!! My last appointment for my 6 month supervised diet is Thursday! Then they file for approval, so I'm hoping very soon. In August. Are you on fb? I would love to keep in touch.

BEAUTIFUL!!!!! You were a gorgeous bridesmaid

These are my favorite pics of myself. I felt beautiful in them but my feet were killing me in the heels and my girdles were suffocating me each and every time I sat down lol I was about 315 and my surgery should be in August.

You look amazing IMO

Let's post our favorite pics of ourselves BEFORE the surgery. I hope this can be a positive thread. Many plus size people don't like taking pictures. However right now this is who I am now and I love me but I have to get better so I can be around alot longer for my husband and kids. Post a beautiful picture of you and tell us a little about the picture

Going to get a pedicure without feeling like the person doing your pedicure is laughing or talking about you in a different language or feeling like they are arguing about who is gonna service you lol

People tell me my mind will change later on but we shall see

I am a size 24 and I'm okay with being plus sized, I just wanna look and feel healthy. I'm having rny in Aug, and I really don't wanna go smaller than a 16. What is your ideal size?

Keep us posted Mel!!

Thank you all

My hubby is very supportive! He loves meat on the bones and adores me exactly the way I am. However he has seen me struggle and wants me to be happy so he is very supportive. he always jokes about being able to toss me around in the bedroom, lol

Thank you all for the welcome!

Lol @ ball of fire! Thank you! That's exactly what I'm hoping for!

My hubby and I

Thank you, I will.

I am a 24 now and I love shopping! I can't imagine anything below a 16!!!! Watch out world!!!

I work in a child development center on a marine corps base. I will no longer have 4 and 5 year olds asking me why I'm so fat!!! Why my arms are so big!!! I will be able to wear heels without fear! Stop sweating so much! Dance with my husband without getting tired so quickly! Shop in Express and BeBe!!! Lol

Hello all! My name is Janeisha, I'm 34 years old residing in Jacksonville NC. I am married to a wonderful man and I have 2 daughters who are 14 & 10. My screen name Dejaseana is a combo of their names. I started my journey 2 years ago. I have Aetna and they require the 6 month physician supervised "diet". The first time I started I got really frustrated and quit during the 6 month process. The office was an hour and thirty mins away. I had to visit many different doctors in many different cities and it was just too much at that time in my life. So here I am again. I'm with Miles surgical in Wilmington NC and I just had visit 5 last week, so I basically I have one visit to go before we apply for approval! This has been such a emotional roller coaster. I have days that I feel like the surgery is going to kill me and I'm making a huge mistake! Then on others I feel really good about it. I'm currently 319 and I'm 5'3". I have always been a thick girl but I became morbidly obese in my 20's. I have sleep Apnea, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, PCOS, borderline diabetic, severely anemic, and a servere Vitamin D deficiency. I feel crappy most days. I'm tired all the time and my quality of life sucks! I have a beautiful family who needs me to feel better and in doing this for us! I don't have low self confidence! I love fashion and I've always dressed really nice! People keep telling me how great in going to look but I wanna hear how great im going to FEEL!! Anyway the doc says my surgery will be in August! So please keep me and my family in your prayers
