I have been fighting my weight for quite a few years now. I used to exercise, jogging, hiking etc,, up until about 5 years ago.
I have Muscular Dystrophy, (FSHD) and it has recently been affecting my legs. Now it is to the point where I can barley walk and fight to climb stairs.
This is why I am getting a VSG. I need to loose about 70lbs in order to stay mobile a few more years.
