I turned 30 in August of this year. I had made it a point to lose 30 pounds by my 31st birthday. About a month after I made this decision, with no plan on how I was going to do this....my husband drives past a true results billboard and calls. Both of us are over weight, I have a 41 BMI he has a 58.8 BMI. We go to our consultation, and within a month we are already approved by our insurance, with no pre qualifications, or requirements except for being 40 BMI and over 18 yr old. As of today (Oct 13th,2010) I have my Cardiologist clearance for TR (I have mitral valve prolapse) and then we have our surgeon appt next week. It has happened fast and furious for us. While working with TR, I found out that I am in the beginning stages of POCS and that along with my husband and my weight has kept us from having the kids we are wanting...I have never known what it is like to be skinny. The last time I looked like a normal skinny person I was about 7 years old. I have always been overweight, and am looking forward to getting my weight under control and feeling healthy and having energy. I would LOVE to get rid of my diabetes....I would LOVE to learn how to love to exercise....I would love to start my family.......so here goes nothing.
