Help Advnts Pull Toji Fushiguro [Weight Loss Surgery]

Hi friends!

Most of you know me as advnts. I draw MHA & JJK ship art and am currently in the process of a 100 day JJK art challenge.

What I’m asking for here though is something deeply personal and a little embarrassing to talk about.

I’ve struggled with my weight my entire life.

Since I was old enough to understand that everyone was smaller than me.

As a result I had very low self esteem growing up and it’s followed me into my adulthood.

It’s so bad that sometimes I dread leaving my house.

I’ve tried everything and I can’t seem to make any headway. I don’t have much in the way of a support system so I do the best I can. I go to the gym at least 3x a week and try to eat well most of the time, but it’s not enough.

Not only is it embarassing at times, but it’s starting to affect my health. (high blood pressure, stress, depression and anxiety).

Unfortunately, my insurance doesn’t cover any assistance with weight loss even with a comorbidity, so I’m on my own.

i found a clinic that will do a gastric sleeve without insurance in my state, but I don’t have that kind of money outright.

I am considered morbidly obese (at around 300lbs) but I’m not incapacitated. My weight doesn’t prevent me from walking or functioning normally.

And the only comorbidity I have is high blood pressure. For now anyway.

But it does greatly affect my life.

I’m afraid to go live it for fear of judgement.

Fitting in an airplane seat. Riding a roller coaster.

So much that I want to do and can’t.

I feel trapped inside my body and sometimes it sinks me into a deep depression.

I’m not asking you to feel bad for me and I don’t expect anything from anyone at all.

But if you’re enjoying my JJK 100 day sketches and/or any of my other art or fics, please consider donating just a little.

It would literally change my life.
