Multiple Medical N Weight Loss (outside The Us)
Well been here for a while reading and posting on occasion. But never really read anyone who is similar to our living issues.

Does Anyone Get Angry Over Weight?
I have more desire to lose weight than I can express. Yet, some of my disability keeps me from doing things that can help me shed that weight.
