Choosing to Live Cleanly

If you ask an obese person why they are choosing to be obese, they will tell you they don’t have a choice. But for most of us, there was that same moment of decision, triggered by an innocent mistake - finishing the rest of the cake in the middle of the night, polishing off your kid’s Halloween candy, ordering a large pizza when you’re eating alone. Everybody makes mistakes, and they can usually be fixed. But, rather than admit we blew it and clean up our mess early on, so many of us choose to shrug it off, and become trapped in a cycle of laziness, guilt and fear. At a certain point, we find ourselves knee-deep in the muck, wallowing in feelings of hopelessness and convinced that we are powerless to change our situation.
Having weight loss surgery gave me a clean start. However I could not do it alone. I had to ask a surgeon to bring the right tools and help me clean up the mess I had created. I asked him to dig into 400 pounds of fat, and cut away the garbage. Now, that my body has returned to its normal, healthy size, it’s up to me to keep living clean. I recognize that I am incapable of doing this by myself, and that I need to turn to a higher power and YOU to stay on the straight and narrow.
And for this, I am very grateful

Blessings,
Craig & Leslie, Michael, Sanae, Lisa

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.
