15 months ago I was knocked back from getting life insurance because of my weight. Now 43kg (95lb) down & I can get insured. I do have a loading on my premium but at least I can get insurance. The price will go down more as my weight goes down more.

One very happy Low Carber here. All the hard work has more benefits than I realised when I started.

    Nice! Congrats on the weight loss and getting life insurance! I just found out how hard it is getting life insurance because of MS, let alone weight issues. :-(
    Congrats!!!

    That's wonderful!!!!!! I sell life insurance and I always feel awful when I have clients I cant get insured. Make sure your agent reviews it with you regularly so you can get he better premium ratings as you lose weight and keep it off. Best to lock it all in now and forget about it till its needed.

    Congrats on your success!!!!!!
