Hello. I am just learning about OH and all the "tools" that are out there! I am also trying to convince my younger sister to go on this journey with me as her BMI is higher than mine and she is a single mom, so she needs the support more! My lil sis and I were planning on attending the WLS Meet and Greet last Thursday but she had just been released from the hospital the previous night from a bout of pneumonia and my first ever tattoo took too long (and sadly I had booked and paid a deposit on the tattoo long before I knew about the M&G). I will be going to see my family physician this week and trying to "convince" him to lead me the in the right direction. I have asked him before a few times as my previous gym memberships and diets have not worked. He said that I "don't need help". But my BMI is 43.4 as I am 5'6" and 275lbs. My knees and feet kill me at work. But worst of all I don't have the stamina for my two young children and/or my energetic wife! I have joined the gym again with the hopes that I can lose weight combined with eating healthier but if I fail like the previous attempts I am hoping that I can be put on a list for an opportunity to have a life-saving surgery!
