Has been reading around the site for a few days and finally registered so here I am......ok my story ....well I have always been overweight as a young child , as a teenager , as an adult and here I am now...super morbidly obese .....how did I get here? Was bullied all through school so ended up turning to food , got married He ended up being a highly abusive alcoholic , had no where to turn so turned once again to food.....marriage ended after 5 years ....happy to be divorced but now I am raising 3 special needs kids on my own , very stressful so ate once again to make myself happy and here I am beginning the Journey of WLS .....waiting for my patient orientation and support group on March 1st , already has a meeting with the sleep study Dr scheduled....I know it is going to be a long journey but at the end it will be so worth it !!!!!! Looks forward to giving support and receiving support as well
