My weight loss journey…
All of my life I have been overweight. Just a little at times and a whole lot more at other times. I am now 36 years old and live in Atlanta GA and currently weigh in at 305lbs. On a 6′3″ frame it is not a huge fat ass look, but not something I am comfortable with anymore. Not from a vanity point of view, but from a health point of view.
I come from a family where on my mothers side, there is a strong history of stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease. And on my fathers side, we have the lovely combination of cancer, stroke, diabetes and heart disease! See where I am going here? I will tell you, it is a crash course for DISASTER.. That’s where..
I have tried and successfully lost weight on several different occassions by placing myself on the so-called “fad diets”. I have tried SlimFast, Low Fat, Atkins, Quick Weight Loss Centers of Atlanta and many many others.
Did I loose weight? YES!! Did I keep it off? NO!!
Not that I east nasty fatty foods all of the time, I try to eat relatively healthy and do so a majority of the time. The minute I go remotely off any diet plan, here comes the weght again!!
Therefore, I have decided to embark on another (more agressive) journey to lose this weight once and for all. I have chosen to pursue Gastric Bypass Surgery.
I wanted to be able to share my sotry online with you and through this website and blog, you will be able to follow along with me through this journey.
Get ready, it is gonna be one hell of a ride!!!
