Ever since i was 10 I was the Chubby kid. I was never thin enough i was always trying to lose that five more pounds. I have done every deit i can think of Jenny Craig weight watcher, Nutrio systym, slim fast Matolight, hydroxcut, atkins, south beach, the blood type diet ect ect. I can lose it the problem is i put it back on. In 2000 i lost 100 lbs useing stage one actickin i also made my self very sick doing it but looked good.After i was told i need to change the way i was eating i soon gained the 100 lbs back pluse a few more. I went to my dr and at 253 vowed to do something I lost 15 lbs to witch i have keened most of it off. I go up and down around 10 lbs. Finely she sugested i try a lap band and wrote a letter to my insuince expaling why i needed it. I started this is Juily of 2011 and it took me that long to get to were i am. I am doing the pre opt diet and look foward to changeing my unhealthy way of living once and for all.
