I am new here. Up until the age of 17 I maintained a normal weight and now I am in alot of trouble with my weight. I weigh 356 lbs and am in desperate need of a hernia surgery that I have to have and am having a hard time finding a surgeon to do it, the last surgeron I went to insulted me, and I felt about 2" tall by the time I left the office. I know that I am very overweight, this is my 2nd step to trying to get my life back in order the first was to quit drinking, now I am ready for another change.

I am here to get some help and meet some encouraging people who are not going to look down on me because of my weight.

Thanks

Never look down on anyone unless you are helping them up.
