I have always been and athlete, and despite being very active, I have always struggled with weight. As I got older, and due to injuries and age, the athletic activity stopped and I found my weight skyrocketing out of control. I found the list of things I could do shrinking, and the list of things I couldn't do because of my weight growing longer with each passing year. I had looked into surgery once before, but didn't follow through with it, but as I found myself miserable and unable to look at myself on the dawn of my 40th year, I decided to go for it. The road has been rough, but IT HAS CHANGED MY LIFE. This tool I have been given has motivated me to take charge of my life and get moving again! I am always looking for people to help support me in my journey, and look forward to supporting others in theirs.
