After reading many of your posts, ...Dear Michelle,<br /> After reading many of your posts, I felt compelled to write a detailed response just as you have taken the time to write about your journey. First things first, my name is Frank and I am an 18 year old freshman in college. My journey toward weight loss started at the beginning of this Fall 2010 semester. I visited my pulmonologist (yes my lung doctor is like my nutritionist!), who is this sweet Indian woman that is also very stern. She told me I have sleep apnea, but that she was not going to treat it with medication because she believes that I just need to lose weight. In September, I was about 205 pounds and I am only 5’7”. Today, after visiting my doctor just a few days ago, I weigh 193 pounds. I know that 12 pounds over three months isn’t all that great, but to be honest I didn’t really start taking it seriously until November. This start was really just what I needed to get going. Year after year of going to the pediatrician, all I kept hearing was that I gained ten pounds every time I went, but no one did anything for me. The doctor told me to lose weight, but I had no real support. Yes it is simple, move more and eat less. Great advice but it wasn’t enough for me. My pulmonologist basically threatened me. She said if I did not lose at least ten pounds in three months, that she would send me to a nutritionist and that that would cost a lot of my parents’ money. <br /> Now, I realize it’s not about the money; rather it is about feeling good and looking good, especially at such a young age. I was reading one of your first posts about fast food restaurants and feeding Tanner. I have to say I am glad that you are not one of those people who just look to sue McDonald’s or set them on fire because they make kids fat. I think your comparison of the alternatives offered by each fast food restaurant in your area shows that, yes, there are healthy options out there, but they are options for a reason. People must make the decision to lose weight and choose healthy options rather than expect the world to make these decisions for them. <br /> I am really glad to see that you are nearly halfway through your struggle. Your posts have been very interesting to sift through. While I will admit this most recent one was a bit boring I loved the closing paragraph. It made me feel happy that I read the entire thing because I know that it makes you happy. I am thinking about starting my own blog so I will see how that goes and let you know!<br /> All the best,<br /> FrankAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1494170969705291752.post-1092889555641706722010-12-13T08:00:44.427-06:002010-12-13T08:00:44.427-06:00Yes, I read the whole thing, found it very interes...Yes, I read the whole thing, found it very interesting. You are looking very pretty, and Tanner is such a nice looking young man.<br /><br />I have a profound hearing impairment, my hearing was lost to an antibiotic taken for an illness as a young woman. I really empathize with Tanner in that respect, always interested in how he is getting along, so sorry about the earmold!<br />Good post.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />: )Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17095324820564114165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1494170969705291752.post-81704513311400295812010-12-04T23:07:58.111-06:002010-12-04T23:07:58.111-06:00sounds like you had a busy day!

I don't know what it is, but it's kicking my behind! Good to hear someone's getting out.
