I have been heavy all my life.  I have been on many weight loss programs and lose weight for awhile and end up gaining it all plus back.  I have looked into weight loss surgery before but just couldn't go through with it.  The first time my children were little, the sicind I didn't feel I tusted the surgeron enough.  With the internet helping me I have researched this and found a surgeron with great feedback form his patients and a great track record on surgeries without complications.  I am 42 years old and can hardly walk on some days.  My back constantly hurts and my knees cause me a great deal of pain. It has come to a point in my life, I want to be able to do things with my family again.  This past summer we all went to Hawaii.  What fun except the palne ride was very uncomfortable and embarraing-for the first time I had to wear a seatbelt extender.  My family climbed Diamond Head- I ended up sitting on a bench wainting for them to come back down because I couldn't make it.  We all were going to hike to a waterfall but I could not make it up all the stairs to get back up-again I sat and waited on them.  The time has come I want to stop sitting and start living again!  I want to be a  healthy old person- not one my husband has to push in a wheelchair!  I am ready-I visited the seminar in July and started the process-Healthier living is common my way!
