Iona

I've been within about 10lbs of 230 since 7th grade. I was diagnosed with PCOS in high school, diabetes in my early 20's, and I've recently started showing signs of kidney disease. In September of 2016 I weighed in at 249lbs, my all-time high, and it was the final straw. I knew I had to make some changes. I made myself be more active, watched what I ate (mostly vegetarian,) and got a consult for bariatric surgery in January of 2017. My weigh-in at the appointment was 239lbs. I'm committed to becoming the healthiest, happiest version of myself, and I'm bringing my loved ones with me! (Willingly, you know, not in a creepy way.)
