My weight has been a very personal struggle for me all of my adult life. It has effected every aspect of my life from raising my kids to my emotional health. I'm tired of the chronic back pain, tiredness and anxiety I have every day because of my weight. I'm tired of being couch bound because my back pain and watching my life pass me by. I've tried every diet. I've tried working out only to be waylaid by my back issues. I'm frustrated but I'm not going to let it control me anymore! After over 10 years of wishing I could have weight loss surgery, it's time I pulled the trigger and make it happen.
