About me

Well, I am currently waiting to hear from the dr's office to schedule my surgery. I always said I would NEVER have any type of weightloss surgery. My husband's aunt had gastric and almost died...another lady I know had a friend who died...so why would I do this to myself??? Well, after going to a lapband seminar I was not scared for one...and I knew this would work for me. I am 34...married for almost 14 years...2 kids ages 9 and 6. I want them to have a healthy mom who is around forever (insert evil laugh here!!! :devil:LOL!!!!). My husband is legally blind. We do not know if he will ever go completely blind, but I want him to see me as a HOT THIN woman at least once....just in case. I am very excited to get this done and with his help I know I will get through the rough days.

Good luck going through the process. This is the single best thing I have ever done for myself. I feel so much better. I get up every morning and I am not in pain. I look better in my clothes and after losing 80 lbs so far, my self confidence is much higher. I haven't experienced any negative effects and hopefully never will. I LOVE MY BAND!!!!

I am so excited to get this done. I want my husband and my kids to have a healthy wife/mom. My daughter (who is 9 and about 62 lbs) said "So you'll be skinny like me??" I laughed and said "Well, you look just like me when I was your age and I do not want you to look like me when you're my age. I won't be as skinny as you but I will be skinnier than I am now." Kids say the darndest things don't they??? Congrats on your loss so far. I just can't wait!!!!!!!!!!
