Riassunto

Karen Gillman’s ‘It’s Never Too Late’ was written to share with readers her battle with obesity and how she ultimately combatted it with weight loss surgery. In early 2000, her weight crept to an all-time high of over 300 pounds. She found herself going through the motions in a lifestyle she didn’t love, living in a body that was weighing her down mentally and physically. There were several indications that had made her realize if she didn’t make some drastic changes, her future would never match that of what she had dreamed of. In 2004 she had gastric band (Lap-Band®) surgery which helped her to shed 145 pounds. Through tips and tricks she has learned along the way as well as those she has personally developed, she has maintained the weight loss and gained a new life that she, through this book, is ready to share with others who are or may be looking to do the same. Karen shares her top 10 'Can't Live Without' items after weight loss surgery as well as motivational to-do's. Karen considers her greatest life-purposes as being a wife, a mother of two and a homemaker. She also works full time as an executive at On Point Executive Center, Inc., and is co-founder of Charity Chics, a women’s based networking company that supports local charities. Karen also finds great joy in being an advocate for adoption, an ambassador for Working Women of Tampa Bay, and as a host of various monthly events serving entrepreneurs. She is a member of the Obesity Action Coalition, BariatricPal, Lap Band Divas, Lapband Support, Weight Loss Surgery Foundation of America and Banded Living. Karen is well recognized for a long list of business awards in the Central Florida Tampa Bay Area and serves her community with passion and purpose. If you or someone you know has struggled with weight loss, or has had weight loss surgery of any kind, this book is written especially for you. Enjoy Karen Gillman’s journey from birth to present day as she pulls back the curtain and shares the good, the bad, and the ugly throughout the transformation of her mind and body. “I’ve really put myself out there,” Gillman says about the book and its content. “I laid aside my pride and included many ‘before’ pictures and stories. My vulnerability in exchange for lives helped is worth exposing the truths of my past”. #lapband #weightlosssurgery #obesity
