CyberDonna Introduction


posted 3/29/08 5:54 am

Hi everyone! I'm Donna.

I had surgery August 16th, 2007, so I'm still kind of a postop newbie. I have lost relatively slowly, 69.5 lbs. in about 7 months, but I'm happy with my weight loss. I just hit Onederland this week and have passed my halfway mark. Woohoo! 

I've been overweight since 8 years old and had a very painful childhood and teenager years as an obese child. Yes, lots of teasing.

I am a computer trainer, but I have mostly done training over the phone for the past 5 years. Recently I trained clients on site for about a week, and I felt very comfortable about my appearance while training people in person. I still have a good 60 pounds until goal but I feel so much more confident already. I don't feel like people are staring at me because of my size anymore. 

When I sit next to people on the bus, I don't feel embarrassed because I take up too much space in the seat, like I used to. Sure, losing weight doesn't solve all your problems, but I can't complain about my progress so far. 

It's good to be here!
