Today I start the challenge of weight loss. I have had an issue with my weight for as long as I can remember, but yet again, who hasn't. I have always felt like the "fat girl" out of all of my friends, because they were always smaller in size then me. Even when when I traded clothes with my friends growing up, my clothes we always baggier on them. Due to this fact, I began to drastically limit my calories. I stopped doing that because, one day I ate a single cookie, and it made me vomit.
I have been morbidly overweight (such a horrible word; morbid) since Karisma was born (now 4 years old.) In 2008 I went on the gastric bypass diet. After 6 weeks of mostly liquids and going to the gym 5 days a week I was not getting the results that I wanted, so I began binge eating. After the binge I would feel disgusting, so I began to purge. I became bulimic and lost 60lbs in 4 months. I am proud to say I have not purged in 4 months, but I have ballooned to almost 200lbs. (50lbs since the summer of 2009)
This long winding journey has become too exhausting for me and I want to turn onto the right path, by taking control. My mother and I are going to begin a 12 week weight watcher regimen as a knowledge tool for our success.
Here goes nothing.
