I'm Samantha and I'm a 21yr old nursing student who has worked in a nursing home as a nurse aide for the past four years. My dream is to become a midwife or coroner, life and death...I know, haha. I've been with my amazing boyfriend Brad for two years and hope to become engaged soon! I come from a large Italian family and my passions are life, love and the pursuit of happiness.

I've ALWAYS been the fat girl. I started putting the weight on really quick at about 13 or 14 and it just kept adding to the 210 I am now at age 21. I don't feel like this is me. I'm miserable all the time, yet my day revolves around what I can eat. I've purged many times. I eat when I'm bored, or any other time. I don't like to eat in front of people because I feel ashamed when I do, like they are staring at my fatness or something. I've never felt comfortable in my own skin.
I've been overweight my whole life, wasted money on weight loss doctors, programs and pills and nothing seems to work. If it does, the results never last long. I don't want to be skinny, but it would be nice to be comfortable in my own skin for once.
I use to have kinda of irregular periods, I was always chunky but as soon as I hit puberty I couldn't keep the weight off. My periods became regular around 16, but last year when I went for a pap smear at a local womens clinic the nurse practitioner asked me if I had PCOS. I didnt even know what that was. She told me my weight problems, irregular hair patterns and cystic acne scars on my inner signs of it and so are irregular periods or lack of. Im too scared to go to a OB/GYN to find out...
