Okay, without writing a book, here is my weight loss history.
8 years old - Mom takes me to doctor to get pills to loose weight. I don't remember if I lost any weight or not, too long ago.
14 years old - Mom takes me to doctor to get pills to loose weight. I loose 70 pounds in 6 months.
17 - 30 years old smoke cigarettes as part of a weight control program, drugs, every diet that came along.
31 - 41 stop drugs, stop smoking, have kids, try Fen Phen, loose 70 pounds. Gain a bunch of weight, loose a bunch of weight, WW, Atkins, exercise, loose weight, exercise, gain weight, loose weight, exercise, gain weight, repeat.
45 years old Jenny Craig, spent a small fortune on food lost 20 pounds, gained 60.
46 - Weight loss surgery. So far as of this morning lost 100 pounds! I've got 6 pounds to go until I hit goal. To say I was skeptical, is a gross understatement.
WLS is the best thing I've ever done for myself. I am a changed person, I'm healthy, I'm happy, I am a participant in life!
I wish you all much success in your journey! Believe me, if I can do it, so can you.
