Weight Loss
I have been heavy my whole life. I wore a size 16 dress at my wedding, and
steadily gained weight throughout the last 46 years. I fried most of our food
and baked a lot of desserts. I worked 9 hour days sitting at a desk, I ate
whatever I wanted. Every time I lost weight I put it back on.

I was on blood pressure medicine, was borderline diabetic and my doctor wanted to start me on cholesterol medicine.
At 309 pounds, I was out of control. I didn’t think I would see my grandchildren grow up. I couldn’t stand in the kitchen to cook or wash dishes, I struggled getting a shower and getting dressed, and I couldn’t walk to the mailbox (approximately 20 yards from the house).
My husband of 46 years dropped me off in front of the grocery store or restaurant while he went to park the car. I turned down going to a baseballgame because I could not walk to the stadium, nor could I sit comfortably in the seats. I flew to Hawaii and had to wear an “extension” belt and was afraid they would charge me for two seats. I went on vacation to the beach, but stayed in the pool area, because I couldn’t walk through the sand to get to the beach. I knew it was time for a change.
