My consultation appointment was Wednesday October 26th. I weighed in at a staggering 246lbs. How did I let myself get this bad. I could try to pretend that I didn’t notice, however I couldn’t find a photo to put on this page because I don’t let anyone take my picture. lol. I knew. I knew the whole time. I digress.. After the meeting and weighing in, I started thinking about all the other things that I wish I could change. Why not fix all the other stuff too!
