Opening up...

I am nervous to post this to the whole world, but I want to be open and honest with my readers/followers and also perhaps help anyone else who has struggled with weight issues…
Most that know me, know I have struggled my whole life with my weight, I have never been “skinny” or “thin”, or hell even “average” or “normal” weight. So, without tell many people (there were only a handful of those who knew) in 2016 I had an elective surgery that was really hard for me to decide to have… I had the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy surgery, AKA Weight Loss Surgery… Part of the reason I haven’t told people, is because I was so embarrassed that I needed this, that people would think I didn’t try so many other ways (and believe me I have) to lose weight, and they would think this was the “easy way out”… well, this was not the easy way out by far, however it was the best choice for me so I could get healthy for myself and my family.
Big thank you to all who have supported me on this journey so far, I couldn’t have done it without you! And a very special thanks to my husband Joe for his constant support in me doing what is best for my health!
I want to share my journey with my weight loss journey as well as everything with my book and upcoming novel. Please feel free to ask me any questions!
