I have been overweight since the birth of my first child at age 19. I became even more heavy after my second child was born and have accelerated from there. I have tried every diet under the sun just to have it not work long term and to even gain more weight.
I am now 43 years old and weigh 275 lbs at 5'6" and having lots of problems physically and definitely mentally. I have had three back surgeries in 4 years and several hospitalizations for asthma. I also believe I now have sleep apnea and is getting a little scarey.
I am tired of just existing and missing out on lots of activities, playing with my new first grandson, not being able to exercise, etc.
I want to change my life and I'm ready to do what it takes.
