Introduction Text In 1976 underwent a weight induced crisis (380 lbs.) and was hospitalized. After release weeks later determined not to live out rest of my life in this 'miserable' way. 25 months later after very focused diet, exercise and work regimen, had lost 201 pounds. Post loss required three rounds of plastic surgery over 8 months (August 78 - apronectomy), Xmas 1978 - half face lift and April 1979 mid thorax residual skin removal. Unfortunately, over next 27 years slowly put back half the weight and now in midst of second time 'round...needso far to lose 90...55 off and 35 to go. I have learned a lot more about myself and my body on the way to achieving and MAINTAINING an appropriate goal weight. I am optimistic.

Height - weight proportionate with appropriate body mass index.

Diet with an eye to G.I index...all the w's are factors. Why do I eat? When do I eat (night eating is a killer!) What do I eat (learned to read labels - big time!) How much do I eat? (portion control). Exercise regimen..swim daily, starting gym program - walking program still needed!

Richmond, BC. Canada. part of Greater Vancouver.
