Hi my name is Don, I am 54 years old and 510 and weigh 294 lbs, and I need to lose some weight, and any help I could get would be greatly appreciated. I need to lose the weight because I have absolutely no quality of Life. I live in pain and take many pain pills. Even so my legs are constantly on fire burning,. I walk bent over like a 80 year old person. I have a hard time breathing, I can not walk with out the aid of a walker. I also have the beginning of diabetes and high cholesterol. I have had back surgery and suffered a broken neck. I am told I also need to two knees, which were both brutalized and broken playing numerous sports, until I was about 43 years old. At which time I took a hit playing hockey, which ended my ability to be physically active. It was also the beginning of the extensive weight gain., During my sporting days I was up and down between 205 and 225 lbs. The weight is causing severe nerve problems in my disks and vertebrae as well as my legs. The pain plays havoc with my moods. I need to lose 135 lbs so I can get off the painkillers and get my life back, and hopefully go back to work. But most of all so my wife, son and Daughter can get back the happy loving person they once knew. I do not want to suffer a stroke or a heart attack. I want to cherish my future grandchildren. The way my health is I can only say to have this happen would be a blessing from God.
Don
