My story as of today (July 25, 2009) is just this....It's blank, It's open and it is only just beginning.  I currently weigh 248 lbs and stand 5'2".  I am READY to be myself again and not 2 people.  I want to be able to sit in a booth at a restaurant.  I want to be able to go dancing with my friends.  I want to be able to go to the pool without kids laughing at me and calling me names.  I want to be able to stand up and watch my children play!!  THUS BEGINS MY JOURNEY.  I have made the first step - I HAVE DECIDED TO GO FORWARD FROM HERE AND HAVE THE SURGERY!
