WLS LOSERS CLUB GET BACK TO BASICS

Marcy Coyne

Founder

Hi everyone!

My name is Marcy Coyne and I am the founder of WLS Losers Club Get Back to Basics.

I had weight loss surgery on August 25^th 2010.  I have a site on face book for people that have either had weight loss surgery or are on a diet to lose the weight that is not needed in their lives.

I am a single woman 50 years of age.  I have 3 daughters and 7 grandchildren.  I have worked in my earlier years but because of weight I was no longer able to work any longer.  This is where SSDI came into my life and I found out what real struggling was all about.  I have now been on SSDI for 3 ½ years and it’s a tough road.

My goal in life, especially now, is to help those that are in the same boat as I am.  Unable to get the supplies needed for after the weight loss surgery maintenance.

This is why I started this foundation, to help those in need by supplying them with a basket of hope. 

Hope helps get us thru the difficult times.  Hope gets us thru the painful times.  Hope is everything to someone that is having a hard time finding it. 

I pray this group gets out to everyone that needs this type of hope.

A little more about me.

I was not always heavy.   As a matter of fact I was a very slim younger person.  I did have weight fluctuations a lot.  After a while the weight came on and never left.  I began eating thru my emotions.  I gained so much that I could not function as a person anymore.

My highest weight was 255 lbs at 5ft 1in.  I felt so bad about myself.  I wouldn’t even wear a pair of jeans anymore because I felt so bad and uncomfortable.  I spent many days and years feeling like this.  Finally my PCP and I decided after I developed borderline diabetes and other co morbidities it was time to take action.  He sent me to my miracle worker.  Then the best thing in a while happened in my life.  I became a brand new person.  Unfortunately, because of my finances things were and are hard to purchase.  I made it happen though. 

To date I have lost from my highest weight 102 lbs. From my baritric Dr appointment Ive lost 92 lbs.

I do things I would not have been able to do.

I have my life back. 

Now let’s get your life back!
