Overdue Introduction
I've been posting some on TT for a few weeks now. I realized I never introduced myself. I'm in the process of getting lap-band surgery.
My name is Ashley. I live in a small town outside of Houston, TX. It is called Mont Belvieu. I'm married with a precious two year old boy. That's him in my avatar. I know it is an old pic, but I don't have very many pictures of me. I hide behind the lens.
I have had a problem with my weight most of my life. Growing up, my dad would tell me if I would just eat right and exercise, I could get the weight off. Yeah right! It isn't that easy!
It wasn't until I started this WLS journey that I realized just how big of an issue I have with food. I am truly addicted to food. I planned our vacations around good places to eat! I looked at the dessert menu first when we went out to eat. Eating out was our entertainment. My entire world revolved (still does some) around food. I understand that WLS will not help with my addiction with food. I know that it will make me even more aware of my issues with food. I just need to learn how to make better decisions.
I want to thank everyone on here for all of their comments and support. I am so glad I found TT. All of you are an inspiration to me. I don't comment a whole lot (yet) because I don't feel like I have much to offer since I'm still waiting for my pre-op appointment. I don't have any good advice to give anyone just yet.
Well, that's me in a nutshell. I look forward to talking to all of you!
