Hello, I am Makayla and I'm 27. I just joined today though have been working on my diet for a bit now. I underwent surgery for the gastric sleeve under my doctor's recommendation. I definitely wonder if I am insane for having said OK to it, but too late to look back on it now. I am determined to change my life, or die trying.
