It's a Shame

I was going to put a pic on my profile, but I'm too disgusted by all my pics to even show my face.

I can't wait until June when I have insurance to see if they approve me for this surgery!!

Oh Melissa, I know exactly how you feel, but I decided to put one on anyway. Everyone on here is here for the same reason. I'm terriably self-conscious of my weight and that's why I'm here...to change that. Don't be ashamed, be proud that you've made a decision to change your life.

Baby girl, don't be so hard on yourself. Just like Nannydeb2 said we are ALL here for the same reason. I like it when peeps have profile pics. You seem more real to me. If you don't put up a pic I think most us will understand. It took me a few days to put mine up.:D

Good luck with your surgery approval!!!!

This is a rough journey, a lot of changes have to be made both physically and mentally. Try to be nice to yourself. You deserve it.
