Short version of my story

Mar 25, 2007

I'm 43, married, and have two girls 9 and 7 years old.  I am active and  happy.  My doctor says that I'm one of the healthiest morbidly obese people he has ever met!  ( I think that's a good thing!? )
I have been on a diet since first grade.  In second grade I weighed more than the teacher!  I've been on as many diets as all of you and Oprah.  I am good at losing weight.  Not at all good at keeping it off.  Right now, I need to do both!  ( BMI pushing 40 )
Last year, I trained for and completed the Disneyland half-marathon.  Funny thing happened after walking 30 to 40 miles a week  for a year.... all tolled, I gained two pounds!!!!  That's when I really figured something was wrong, and I needed to start searching out alternatives.
Onward!
