I am a 49 year old mother of a 20 year old, who has a 5 year old daughter( yes he started way to young) He and his daughter live with my husband and I. we have been together for 8 years and he is the love of my life. I have struggled with weight my entire life, I have always been the fat girl.I am going through the steps to have barbaric surgery, but boy between the doctors and the insurance there are an awful lot of hoops to jump through. I am determined to loose this weight no matter what it takes. I currently do not work, I am an social security disability due to all of my health issues combined.I want to be able to see my grand daughter grow up and I am not done with this life yet there are still lots of things to enjoy in life.
