I have tried to lose weight all my life, I would go up and down with little success! My family have many bad traits that are passed on, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, plus many more! I smoked for 16 years(i quit march2012) and recently my mother had to have a leg amputated due to poor health an circulation so I knew it was time to get a handle on things for myself if I wanted to be there for my own children(7,12,14). I was always the one that was told you have such a pretty face, it's a shame your over weight! I had to to the 6 month supervised diet, did all my testing and classes, I was approved around Oct 2012..I have a very memorable surgery date even though I will never forget that my life forever changed 10/11/12!!
I cannot wait to be the healthy , happy person I knew I could always be!!
