I'm 5'7 and weight 255 lbs. I have multiple comorbidities. I have Hashimotos disease which is a thyroid condition, high cholesterol, arthritis of my lumbar spine as well as my right hip, which results in chronic back pain.
But I don't let it stop me! I got in a wreck in 2003 and broke my back and femur which is why I have these issues, and also a major contributor to the weight gain. I was 155lbs in 2002 and then following the accident ballooned to this, my highest weight. Anytime I diet I end up putting the weight back on plus some. I love exercise and have always been active, I was going to play D1 soccer at Elon prior to my accident.
So it's about time I got back on track and started living my life again. I'm on a fast track to being diabetic as it runs in my family as does heart disease and obesity in general. And this is my story! Time to turn the page.
