My story is like a lot of people. Get married have kids and never lose the baby weight. I have gained and lost hundreds of pounds over the last 17 years. Each time it gets harder because my mind remembers how hard it was the last time. In the last 5 years my mother has been in the hospital 20 times from heart attack to bypass to broken hip to broken foot recently. My sister who is 10 years older, has had 5 heart attacks and bypass surgery and is now a diabetic. My brother had a heart attack, then bypass and recently has suffered from throat cancer but is doing well - thank you God. Oh, and by the way I only have one brother, and one sister and one mother. My dad died 12 years ago and he had had heart surgery as well.SOOOOO I do not want to be a member of their club!!! I DO NOT want to have the surgery tattoo that they all have. So I decided this was for ME. I wanted to be the best me I could be and once that happens, I am sure I will be a better wife, mother, sister and daughter. I know this is not guarantee that I will not suffer from health issues, but I do think this will help. Pray for me as I go thru this journey and I will pray for each of you.
