Well i am 19 years old and i weight *embarassed* 300 lbs i dunno but the last 2 months or so i have been having a hard time speaking regularly to people i slur alot and forget what im going to say. could i have had a stroke ? if so is there any way i could recover from it i want to go to college next year and be normal not living on a dead end job with no life :( Thank you all for your advice they are wonderful. I will see a doctor and ask and yes ive been planning on losing the weight been eating alot healthier and exercising more ive lost a total ofr 10 lbs the last 2 and half weeks :D just was curios on my speech problem. you all rock!
