Good morning, all,
My name is Carol Washington from Chicago. Since having a hysterectomy in 2011, I have gained almost 60lbs in addition to being overweight, I am morbid obese, according to the doctor. Therefore, I had to get real with myself and talk to myself. I had to determine within myself whether I want to live a long, healthy, happy life or the opposite to that. I decided after having issues with my knees, hips, breathing, etc., I WANT TO LIVE....
When I went to my doctor for help, we discussed a plan that would be healthy and long term. My goal is to lose 100lbs. I started the program, which includes eating healthier, exercise, and an appetite suppressant, I have lost 16lbs. My original weight when I went to talk with my doctor was 282lbs. I am only 5`4" and my body type is for a small person, meaning I wasn't meant to be fat, but I MADE MYSELF FAT... lol.
The only way this problem can be tackled is if we all KEEP IT REAL with ourselves.
