Well so far the story is a rather short one. Like so many I have struggled with my weight since I was a child, trying so many diets, losing some and gaining most back. Three years ago I looked into lap-band surgery and thought the money was to much and I'd could do it on my own. Well three years later and I weigh more then I did back then and have lost precious time. I have decided that I do not want to spend the next chapter of my life trapped inside this body that I can't seem to get out of. I have a long way to go and a lot of work to do (physically, emotionally and mentally) but I am excited to get started. More to come....
