I'm a 25 year old workaholic- work very close to full time, and as of January will be going to school full time as well (2nd degree, I like being busy.) I've always been on some kind of mission to lose weight, but I have ZERO support at home. My mom was even in the exam room with me yesterday when my surgeon refused to do a procedure until I'm down to a normal weight, and doesn't think it's an issue that there's primarily sweets in the kitchen. Add in the fact that I fast for religious purposes and it's a nightmare trying to eat healthfully.
So I guess I'm here for support and new ideas in this fight? Doctor wants me down 70lbs before my procedure. I just wish he had said something when I first went to him a few months ago about this.
