I had gastric bypass in 1999 at 15 years old. Since then I've gone from 237 to 157. My weight went back up to 168 a year ago, after a few emotional crises (yay for hormones and emotional eating huh?) but I've managed to get back down. I'm trying to finish the journey I started as a teenager and get even smaller. I have a tendency to put on muscle really fast, so I have to be careful when I lift weights as it makes me gain weight rather than lose it.

I have issues with loose skin, lots of muscle (thighs and legs are pretty big, but not fatty), and just being big in general. I'm a Size 12, with a 33 inch waist, but I can't shop at very many stores because of my broad shoulders and muscular upper body. Guess I'm just weird haha

I bake as a side job, which makes it difficult to keep my eating habits good. I just give everything I bake away if it's not something that someone ordered :)
