Hello Everyone,
My name is John, I live in Massachusetts. I have the best wife in the world, she is extremely supportive with me in anything I do. We have a little boy that is almost two years old, he is the cutest thing in the world. He is awesome, my little sunshine. He makes everyday worth living.
Like most people I'm sure, I have been battling being overweight almost all of my life. As you well know, It isn't fun being the little chubby kid that needs to buy Huskies at the store. Nor is it fun being the biggest person (most of the time) at the party or family gathering. Who wants to be Morbidly Obese?
About four years ago with the help of an awesome personal trainer, we worked together three days a week and I was running the other three or four days. I lost 97 lbs, weighing about 245. I thought that it would be the best thing that ever happened to me. I actually enjoyed running on a daily basis and working out. Well after not being able to afford the trainer anymore, one day I sprained my ankle.That's when I hit the wall. I stopped my healthy life and got lazy. I thought it was going to be easy getting back into the grove again but I was wrong. One week not doing the right thing lead to one month, now we are four plus years later and I gained almost 200 lbs. As you can imagine I'm at the point that I won't be around for long If I continue the road I'm on. I need help so that I can get back into the grove of being a better me. By myself I can't do it so I looked into Gastric Bypass.
On August 31,2011 I'm getting surgery. I'm ready to be born again. Ready to live my life as a regular person, whatever that means. Ready to be a better Husband, better Father. I have realized that I can't do it from the couch or the grave. Thank you for visiting my page.
John
