OK, so. I woke up at 4:30 with pains in my legs (charlie horses) and didnt get back to sleep til 6, and i had to get up at 6:30. so that really sucked... but not as much as what im about to tell u. i got up and got ready for the day and my mom calls me. she tells me that in order for her to have her surgery it will cost her $7,000, and thats including the help from our insurance apparently... she said that instead of her getting the surgery, she would pay for me to get it. she said i have a longer life to live and she wants me to be able to enjoy it. that just made me depressed knowing the only reason my mom isn't getting what she wants is because she knows i want it too. we both need it, theres no doubt about that. but i am gonna feel so guilty if i actually do it... she'll see me losing the weight and be saddened by it. i dont know what to do!! :biggrin::sad::thumbup:

Hi there everyone! Im 18 and I weigh 328 pounds. I know... it's awful. My mom and I were doing really good, we went to our appts where they meet u and take your pic and ur weight and all that. i hadn't had 6 months of documented "dieting" proof or whatever they ask of you, so my mom and i both started working at that. well as always, i fell off the wagon and just haven't been motivated to get this process done yet. my mom just got approved for her surgery yesterday and now im super jealous and wish i was as strong as her and that i would've stuck to it too... could anyone give me motivation or your own personal sucess stories? did you have any problems like this? what'd you do?! I NEED HELP! lol any would be appreciated!!!!!! Kyrsten
