Well here goes.... I have been over weight my entire life. I think I have probably lost about 5 people  over my lifetime . I lose 30 gain 40 and so on. I am so ready to start my life anew. I really want to be healthy and be able to go on walks with my husband get on the floor and play with my granddaughter and I would love to be able to walk up a flight of stairs without huffing and puffing. I have sleep apnea and the beginning stages of copd.. the orth. Dr. tells me I need a new knee.. but not at this weight that would be a waste of time I would wear it out in no time. I have struggled my whole life with my weight, my brother was really thin, and I heavy. I could sit and watch him eat and gain weight. he was my biggest support person for losing weight. I lost him in a motorcycle accident in 1983 it has been a struggle with my dieting ever since. I know in my heart he is here with me . and he is going to walk by my side thru this whole process. I know he would want this for me and would support me to the fullest. so here I am ready to start my new life .I got a call from Dr. Gluck office yesterday they have everything they need except the letter from my PCP soon as they get that the chart will be given to Dr. gluck for review and then given to the girl  to get my surgery date. so here I am just waiting...............
