Welcome!

Hi everyone!!

My name is Carol Allen and this is my story of being overweight and finally doing something about it.

I know it's a bit after the fact and I should have started this blog way before my surgery but hell, it's better late than never.

If you are thinking of weight loss surgery, in the process, or years after - this website is for you!

I will discuss my days after surgery - the struggles I deal with - the daily weight loss - the daily menu and my emotions.

I will also go back and share with you some of the testing and struggles I had to go through in order to get here.

So let me start here......

My highest weight - 280 lbs
My weight before surgery - 255 lbs
My weight today - 249.2

My surgery was done on July 9, 2014 at Aria Bariatric Center, Torresdale Campus in Philadelphia.  My surgeon is Dr. Renza and she fucking rocks!!

I'm going to be honest with you and not give you the shit that you need to hear.  I don't follow the rules perfectly.  I cheat on this and sometimes I pay the price!

I am hoping as time goes on - I can add a chat room so we can all support each other and read each other's stories.

I would love for you to share before and after pictures of yourself and also ask questions.  I'll answer honestly but I don't know everything about this. I can only promise to try my best.

You will see advertisements on the side of the blog for what I use - I have shopped everywhere and found the best priced, best tasting (my opinion) products for my journey.
