Sally’s winning comment is as follows:
The biggest obstacle to acheiving my weight loss is many-fold and complex as I believe it is for most. I believe my sleep apnea is the worst “culprit”. I also have Hashimoto’s thyroid disease and in 2006 I crash dieted and lost 82 lbs in 11 months only to suffer a rapid rebound weight gain of 40 pounds. For over two years, I have not been able to get this weight off. I was previously insulin resistant and had surgery on PCOS. The fibromyalgia affects working out. I feel that all of these issues feed off one another. It is crystal clear to me that feeling poorly every day from debilitating fatigue is the biggest obstacle to acheiving the weight loss I so desperately need. I really do need help. I want to live before I die.
Beth Ellen,
I want to let you know how grateful I am to have had this help from you. Your knowledge about nutrition is so impression but it goes well beyond that. You understand the human body and chemistry therein. You worked with my specific issues and provided me with a wealth of feedback and information I will have to use forever. I am so blessed to have won this contest and I feel armed with the knowledge and support to help me on my path to a healthier and more active life. I will be posting a followup in about a month or so. I want to thank you personally and metabolism.com for this gift. I have already lost 5 pounds in less than two weeks just by making some of the changes you recommended. I am truly blessed and thank you.
Sincerely,
Sally
