I am 46 years old and have struggled with food addiction and weight my entire life. I lost almost 200 lbs between 1997-2008 and kept it off through diet and exercise. I even had cosmetic surgery to fix my arms and chest, but never got to the root of my addictions. I ate what I wanted and obsessively exercised 2 hours a day to compensate for any extra calories. I knew that if anything happened, and I could not exercise that I would gain the weight back. I figured that I would never allow that to happen...but, life did happen. After years of personal relationship issues and illness and injuries followed by surgeries and eating through the depression, here I am again almost back to my hw of 331 lbs. It's like all that hard work was for nothing. Now, my weight and pain keeps me from being active. Diets and medications to lose weight do not help anymore. I have been advised to have, and been referred for bariatric surgery, but fear my insurance is not going to cover. I am not able to get it without assistance and am looking for support through the process of getting my life and health back. I would love to help others like me as well.
