My name is Rob and I am 33 years old.  My BMI is 37.5 6'1 and 275.  I am married to my highschool sweetheart (on here under jewel-twin). We have two children 11 year old Emily and 7 year old Gavin. 

From a weight stand point I have battled my weight since I was 5 years old.  I got my tonsels out and from there my weight went up.  My highest weight was 360 lbs.  I have lost 85 lbs I don't really know how, it just dropped, but left me with lots of damage.  I have type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesteral.  I have a degenerative disorder called CMT or Charcot Marie tooth disorder which is like muscular distraphy of the arms and legs.  (its more complicated then that but its the easiest explaination). The combination of my weight, CMT and diabetes caused me to have my right leg amputated below the knee because of a massive infection that couldn't be fixed.  

Its time to get my life back.  I litterally have one foot in the grave and I plan to keep the other out of it and hopefully WLS will help me accomplish that.

If you have questions feel free to ask.
