I've been dealing with weight issues since high school. I've been unhappy with my appearance for a long time but recently my cholosterol started to get higher. The final straw was when a cousin died. She had been morbidly obese and her sister also (who has diabetes). I realized I didn't want knee or hip surgery like my aunts. I attended a seminar in January right after the holidays and had surgery in June of 2010. Since the seminar, I have lost 40 pounds.
