Cheryl Fricke

I have chosen to take a new path, one I will follow to a healthier me. I have been obese for 30 some years, and thought I was heavy long before that. I have tried more diets than I can think of; many were pretty crazy. But . . due to my lack of self-control, motivation or whatever, what ever I did lose would always come back. And then some.

I have (way) too many physical and mental impedments to 'normal' living - Major Depressive Order, really bad knees to name a few. There are so many things I want to do that I can't do now without pain or gasping for breath. I have started the process required have bariatric surgery. I know this is not an easy fix, but nothing else has worked and I want to get this weight off!
