I am 40 years old, I have three children two boys 15 and 11 and a beautiful little girl 3 years old. I had polio when I was 2 years old and have been told that I will have post-polio when I reach 40. Well it just hit me, I NEED TO LOOSE THE WEIGHT. I refuse to have post polio. I want to be healthy for my children and for my husband. I just started the SMASH FAT DIET on 4/20/2009. I weigh 200 lbs and I am determine to change my life. I have to for the sake of myself and my children. Due to the polio it is very hard for me to do heavy exercising, but that is just an excuse. I am tired of my excuse I really need to loose this weight.
