Real and True Stories of Obesity & Weight Loss Surgery

Seemingly, discrimination against obesity is towards the bottom of the list, in the universal fight for tolerance. This obesity discrimination has hurt countless numbers of overweight men, women, boys and girls.

Some choose weight loss surgeries to help rid them of their unwanted fat, others choose a weight loss program to help them reach their goal. And so many more find themselves stuck in an "obesity circle", where the pain and hurt from the past cripple them to a point where they are unable to make any change at all.

This famous quote from Austin Powers sums up what I mean by an "obesity circle". "I can't stop eating. I eat because I'm unhappy, and I'm unhappy because I eat. It's a vicious cycle. ~Fat Bastard from Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me

The first time I saw that scene, I laughed. The very next time I had a binge-eating session and felt the shame, guilt and disgust, I thought of that scene and cried. There are so many reasons why obese people become obese, stay that way, or decide to make a change.

Obesity, Weight Loss Surgery, and The Truth

So please feel free to share your true stories here. You can submit a story as anonymous, or your real name. Share your true stories of weight loss surgeries (good and bad), weight loss programs (success and failures), or obesity stories from childhood, adolescence, or adulthood.

Emotional scars from obesity can run deep, but what about the wounds that never healed enough to even form a scar? Get it off your chest, free yourself, tell your story.

Has an experience you've had been eating away at you, and you want to get it off your chest? Has a childhood experience followed you into adulthood, and you're ready to let it go? Are you just happy (whether you had weight loss surgery or not), and want to share your joy with the world? Let your voice be heard!
