My story begins with my family of two beautiful girls and my lovely and smart wife. Two years ago we all went on vacation together to the Mammoth Caves in Kentucky. I am very claustrophobic and was very out of shape. I believe that I could not walk down the hundreds of stairs to the bottom of the cave, but I did it because I didn't want to disappoint the kids. As we went down deeper and deeper the stairs got narrower and narrower. At one point I only could only slide by one turn and almost got stuck. When we got to the large room in the cave I asked my daughter how she liked that and she said it was great but she was scared that my wife and I might get stuck and how would they get us out of there. At that point I knew I would have to do something about my weight.
