Other information about me

Hello everyone, my name is Alicia I am 26yrs old, I was 5'5 337lbs, I have been over weight most of my life. I can honestly say that I have lost 50+ lbs at least 3 different times in my life. Problem is it never stays off... When people tell me "just eat less, or work out more" I just want to scream! It's not that EASY!" I had weight lose surgery (WLS) June 13, 2006. I have lost 140 lbs as of Feb 6, 2007. I first thought about WLS after reading a story about Carney Wilson, and thinking, hhmm, interesting, but I could never do that (I think I was still very deep in denial). Finally, after I could no longer continue to push my weight problems to the back of my mind and when I stopped lying to myself saying "this is just me, it’s the way I am, I just need to accept myself"... which is BS! Yes, this is me, and yes this is the way I am... but I don't have to "accept" this life any longer! I’m a good person, I’m nice, I'm pretty and I deserve to live a full and wonderful life!! The past 7 months have not been easy and I hate it when people say “you took the easy way out” that is BS!!! You should really do your research before you open your mouth!

 

Here is some info on who I am:

I am a big dreamer, and not afraid to take on something new! I am loving, caring, and understanding (most of the time)can't forget about how silly I am LOL... I would do just about anything for a friend. I'm an outgoing person that loves life; I live one day at time and take nothing in life for granted. I wake up each morning and live my life with a purpose. It's too short not too! I'm a firm believer of giving instead of receiving, because I'd rather see others happy, than myself. I can be shy when I first meet someone, but once we get to know each other I can talk all night long. I love to read, I am a poet. I'm a real romantic a dreamer kind of an idealist I guess you could say. I'm striving to make my dreams become a reality! My motto is; Make someone's day, say hello to a stranger, and open a door for someone. You should call someone who least expects to hear from you, leave a twenty dollar tip instead of five. Pick up a piece of trash even if it isn't yours; write a poem for a friend to let them know you care. I can have a real attitude sometimes and other time I can be the sweetest person. I am open and honest with people and I don’t have a problem making my opinion know. I am a poet an artist a dreamer…
