Hello -



I started my journey to a healthier me on 7 September 2000. I weighed 407 lbs and was no longer enjoying my life. Just to walk up the stairs took tremendous effort and I had constant pain in my knees and back.



Today, 44 months later I have lost almost 200 lbs and am more than 80% of the way to my goal. I've had several reconstructive plastic surgeries and my body has changed dramatically. I still have a long way to go but hope you will cheer for me on my journey.



My knees no longer hurt with every step and I'm getting back my active lifestyle. I'm skiing and swimming and walking as much as possible. As the weather chills back down I look forward to weekends of hiking and camping with my friends. I'm now PADI SCUBA certified (July 2001) and went on my first "real" diving trips to Florida and Hawaii. I'm also playing on four softball teams and two soccer teams this summer....



Please join me in celebrating the gift that Weight Loss Surgery has given me - My Life Back!!!!
