Hello we are Melissa and Christopher, husband and wife of four years. We are each others worst enemies at times and at others one anothers best friends. Since meeting 7 years ago we have gained nearly 150 pounds in combined weight together. Both of our weights have hit an all time record high and the time is NOW to act on it. We are both in our 30's and wish to be parents. PCOS has affected Melissa's ability to be fertile and carry a fetus to term. We had begun to adopt from China when it was stopped due to China's rules of a strict NON OBESE BMI. Most recently Melissa has watched one of her family members die of colon cancer. And in the last thirty days watched as her mother was diagnosed with Colon Cancer and her father with kidney failure as a result of long term uncontrolled diabetes. Being obese together is putting a huge strain on our marriage. At times one or both of us are way too tired to enjoy the other. We hope to rebuild our marriage through this challenge and change our 756 combined total weight
