Hello My name is Amber. I'm new to the site and thought I would share a little about my story. I've been over weight my whole life. I was always the biggest girl in the class. I didn't really start gaining until High school. And when I say gain I mean GAIN. I have also had two children back to back, that sure didn't help my weight situation. I got so tired of being fat and having no energy that last year I had Gastric Bypass. June 20, 2011 to be exact. I have lost over 120lbs so far. I went from 260 on the day of surgery to 144. I'm 9lbs away from my goal weight. The last year has not been easy for me. I know some people think that weightloss surgery is the easy way out. Well let me explain something it's far from easy. The struggles are endless. I still struggle with my weight, and the food that i put in my mouth, so I'm here to find support and give support. Thanks for Reading!
I've posted a before and after pic!
