In the beginning

May 17, 2010

Welcome to my journey.

I am on a quest – a quest for health. The maternal unit would be thrilled but dubious. Can’t say I blame her – it’s a first in my 52 years on the blue planet. But here I am.

52 years old, 100 pounds overweight, two years out from double bypass surgery, with high LDL, low HLD and on my way to being pre-diabetic (if one believes their physician). I can’t walk my dogs because my excess weight hurts my knees and feet. I get out of breath bending over to change their piddle pads. I’d love to get into showing my wonderful herd of chihuahuas but I’m too embarrassed by how I look to want to do anything in public.

After many years of trial and error, I have discovered what so many others already know – diets don’t work! I can’t afford another diet – everytime I go on a diet and lose any weight, I gain back twice as much as I lost. That’s how I went from 150 to 250 in a little over 10 years.

And so I have joined the ranks of those in search of assistance with this problem – also known as weight loss surgery (WLS).
