Hi. Today I begin my journey to the new me! After struggling with weight my whole life, I have finally decided to take control. I lost 100 pounds on my own with diet and exercise. Starting at 300 pounds and 5 ft 2 in tall, I was as wide as I am tall! I got down to 190 back in October of 2011. Now I am back up to 230 and I see my mom still struggling with weight loss and she is 20 years older than me! Seeing that made me realize that I need to do something permanent so I don't struggle 20 years from now! My daughter will be having the same surgery so she doesn't have to struggle either. Yeah!!! New us, new life! Can't wait!!! Looking forward to posting after pictures.
