My Story

After many attempts to lose weight in the past, I feel that I need to get more aggressive and research surgery. At 325, I need to make some drastic changes. Recently celebrated our 10 year anniversary, have 2 boys under the age of 5. I work 2 jobs, play Mr. Mom as much as I can and just have a comfort with the family that I want to continue as long as I can. That's not going to happen in the shape I'm in. I've tried the diets, have ran a marathon and currently do triathlons, just things don't seem to click...I'm really looking forward to WLS as a tool to get me to where I want to be. My family is my inspiration. I want to be as dedicated Husband and Father as my idols, the Hoyts.
