Hot Fat 4 Sale

I started Hot Fat 4 Sale in October 2005 to track my progress after having had gastric bypass surgery in August 2005. From the beginning, I've tried to be honest about my successes, failures, emotions, reactions and decisions resulting from this life-changing decision.

I try hard to stay away from dieting advice. If diets had worked for me, I wouldn't have weighed 317 pounds. But I have no problem telling my story like it is. In fact, this blog has also become a forum for my struggle with an eating disorder.

Hot Fat 4 Sale has been my personal tool for healing, but I also enjoy the sense of community that has come about as I meet other people struggling with weight-related issues. At times, the two-way communication has kept me on the straight and narrow...or pulled me back to reality when I was veering too far off course. And there's nothing more rewarding than knowing that I've helped other people through my writing.
