Can I make another selfish request?

lol Altron, you look like what my youngest nephew David might look like in about 7 years, if he starts needing glasses.
 
The only photo I have of me weighing a hefty 396lbs! I wasn't too keen on photos.

Not bad considering I suffer from Binge eating disorder (basically bulimia without the purging) and it's been really hard just lately fighting it, but I'm determined to beat it in the end. People think you just have to eat less to lose weight but with BED you're fighting self-sabotage and the urge to binge all the time. It's a mental health issue which is often the result of abuse or assault and it's hard to succeed without support. It is never "cured"... hence the need for the gastric bypass. It's hard to overturn 43 years of self-abuse, especially when eating disorders are more associated with teens than middle-aged fatties like me.
 
Hi Em! It sounds like you're on the right path and you should be proud of what you've accomplished so far. You look much better!
