    • About Me

      I am a 52-year-old mother of one. My daughter is 25 and a mother to my wonderful granddaughter, who will be 3 in January '10 and a new grandson, Alexander Richard, who was born 10/21/09. I have been married to my husband for 28 years. He owns a dog grooming business and I am his extra set of hands. I am on SSDI for chronic depression and anxiety disorder. I have struggled with my weight most of my life. I watched my sister-in-law go through wls and one of my friends and decided it was time for me to change my life. My husband watched me for two years and decided if he wanted to keep up with me he better have the surgery too. He is doing so well! I am struggling with some poundage that I have gained over the holidays, but spring is here and I need to get my dogs and me back to walking and working off the weight. It's true that wls is a "tool" and that you will still struggle with maintenance. It isn't a quick fix or the "easy way out". My biggest advice is CHEW, CHEW, CHEW your food!!
