sorry I just read this....I lost weight in the past because I was mobile and could walk and exercise as well as I had some deep belief I could. now I am very weak and sickly as well as having major trouble with my hormones and severe pains. trying to get those fixed and maybe I will do a bit better. I am not booked for weight loss surgery but am on the waiting list for it. scared to go ahead but I think I will......thanks for your questions and concern:)
