About Me
I'm 44 years old. I have been married 16 years and have two beautiful daughters, ages 6 and 14. I live in Northern California. I have been overweight for about 10-12 years. I am a yo yo dieter. I eat when stressed. I recently quit my job, however, so the stress eating seems to be getting better. I'm 5'2.5" and at orientation on 9/14 i weighed in at 219.2 (with a BMI of 40). I have tried every diet, weight loss program, aerobics and workout routine imaginable. Recently doing bootcamp and hurting my foot and knees as a result of extreme working out. I've had it with losing the first 20 lbs and never getting over that hump. I want to be thinner and healthy. I am currently taking high bp meds and cholesterol meds. I was diagnosed with hypothyroid a year and a half ago with my number being 98 (yes almost 100) on a scale where the average person should be between .5 - 5.5. Now that my thyroid is regulated, the doctors think with a little help, I will be able to live a healthier, more vibrant life, possibly allowing me to go off my bp and cholesterol meds.
If you have a similar story, want to tell me your experience with the sleeve, or just say hi, email me or shoot me a message. I love the support and I'd love to be supportive.
