My bad decisions (2)
I have been overweight almost my whole life. More like thin and then fat and then thin again only to get fat again. I was always a very attractive person but just wanted to be thin. I started out on several diets and tried exercising. It worked for a little while but then I would always go back to being fat. I remember when I was 25 telling myself when I was 35 would I be fat or thin and what about 45 and 55? I told myself I would do anything to be thin. At age 33 I decided to have a gastric bypass. I had it done in Beverly Hills California. It was the most awful surgery. It took a lot out of me. I started dropping wait immediately because I no longer was able to eat. I mean really eat anything. I vomited constantly. Well I am now 42 years old. I look back now and think I wish I was overweight trying to lose some weight because I can no longer eat anything I love, steak, regular meat anything bready. I have had 3 very painful hernia operations and a severe case of anemia that I cant recover.I have lost almost all my hair and look like I am dying from aids or cancer. fI now wish with all my heart that I never had the surgery and that I could go back and forth and up and down on my weight. Because now that I weigh 117 lbs I look like death.
