Career as a chiropractor

Hello IM's out there that are chiropractors.

I have recently been trying to decide on a career that I want to start studying or preparing for when my sons are in school and I am considering chiropractic.

I am quite passionate about it as my personal experience with treatments has given me my life back and I always hear people who have similar complaints and I try to convince them to give the chiropractor a go.

My question is what should I expect of studying for it, working in the field and what were your motivations to study it?

I also am curious as I am quite overweight at the moment and am slowly trying to get myself healthy again, I know all the chiropractors I have met are very health and fitness conscious so I guess I'm asking would I be a lepor being overweight?

I am also concerned I am not smart enough, I really don't know what to expect I am reasonably smart but did struggle with school but excelled in the work force.

I guess I want some personal stories as obviously my self confidence is quite low and I don't know whether this will be too bigger challenge.

Thank you
