AngryViking

I'm scheduled for July 17. Less than two months to go!

Just my husband and 8 year old son know at this point. I'm not in the habit of sharing much personal information and I figure if I think you need to know, I'll tell you. I think I may feel that way because about 12 years ago I lost over 100 pounds on WW. I then met my husband, got married, got pregnant immediately and went on to gain that weight back plus 20 or so. I've tried to do WW again (among other things) but I have had -0- success this time around. I kind of feel like if I did it before I can do it again, but that hasn't proved to be the case, you know? I don't want to hear from anyone that I'm "copping out". Actually, my husband was the one who suggested (pushed) that I see the doctor to begin with and now that I have and he's seen what is involved, he's not too sure. Figures. As for me, I wasn't too sure beforehand but after attending the initial seminar and researching and reading A LOT on here, I know it's the right path for me. Someone on here has a signature that says something like "it's never too late to be what you might have been". That really resonates with me and says everything about why I'm beginning the journey. So, now that I've gotten off topic, I'll guess what I'm saying is I'll tell the rest of my family/friends if and when I damn well feel like it. This is about me and my health, not anyone else and their negative opinions. - Kristen
