So this weight loss jouney has been difficult my entire life, I remember being 11 years old and weighing close to 180 lbs, talk about depressing, my stepfather would always tell me im fat or look like a cow...As i grew older my body was still changing but the weight didnt come off much, when i turned about 15 i started running everymorning and calorie counting, i lost alot of weight I finally felt and looked good, I remember my stepmom ripping up a picture because she said she looked fat next to me...I never had any encouragment from my parents as u can see..So my weight continued to go up and down until I got pregnant two years ago and went from 170 to 217..I cannot loose a lb in the last two years, i developed high blood pressure and extreme back pain. My life has been horrible the last two years, my husband and I have no intimate relationship and no attraction to eachother what so ever. I wake up every morning feeling lazy and horrible..I literally feel the weight holding me down every day. My doctor reffered me to weigh management and suggested I look into the lap band,..I think I am a perfect canadate for this procedure..I met the surgen last night and attended a 2 hour meeting..I am so excited for this and wish I knew about this sooner...I believe this is the missing tool I have needed my entire life.
