My story- Fat since I was ten,Called Big bertha in highschool,was the BIG GIRL cousin in the family,was taken advantage of by men because I was fat. Was kept a secert from a serious relationship because his friends didnt date fat girls. Thats my PAST HERE I AM FOR MY FUTURE!!!
I am 35 years old A mother to a 2.5 year old and a wife of 5 years. I have been the yo yo dieter since as long as I remember. I have finally looked into WLS and feel that the Lap Band is the best choice for me and my Dr aggrees. I have started my own diet as of June 20th and as of today July 20th I have lost ten pounds. I do suffer from stomach issues alot worse since I had my C-section with my baby. I know I have IBS and I also believe I have diverticulitis. I am getting tested before I go any further with my WLS. I have no issues with INS and dont need any pre diet situations before WLS. Very Happy about that.
 
I am new to this site and not to sure how to figure all this stuff out and how to do tickers and all that other stuff. I have read alot of stories and alot of posts and I know I am in the right spot for support,help, and advice.
 
I hope to make some life long friends from this site.
