At 35 I have spent the last 10 years trying to lose weight, most times I would succed but it wouldn't last very long. I played and enjoyed all sports in high school, good enough to be State Champs in Basketball, State Champ in the 100 yd dash, and 4 x 100 relay, and second team all- american in football, even went to college and played footbal my first year. After I stopped playing organized sport and just played in leisure I begin to slowly pick-up weight a little bit at a time, still feeling healthy but just a little heavier. Overtime I got older and the weight got higher then it happen I begin to have the physical problem that I couldn't beleive. Artiritis, heel spurs, bruised tendions, chest pain, breathing problems, sleep apnea, allergies, and bucket full of other things I cannot explain. My journey toward WLS started 2 years ago and I had been changing my mind and trying to do it on my own. Thinking I'm an athelete I know how to work out and eat right, but everytime I do it, it came right back until a month ago I wasn't even thinking about it again then I had this dream. In the dream I passed away from a heart attack or stroke, and I asked GOD was there anything I could have done to prevent this from happen he pointed to this time and said you should have gotten help instead of trying to do it on your own. Even after that dream it still took me 2 weeks to call and set a appointment but I finally did and I feel so much better now and releaved to take control of my life.
