:wub: My name is Michelle - I live in Texas and have tried (almost) every diet under the sun. I've done Weight Watchers, the HcG diet, Atkins, South Beach, Vegetarian, low cal, low carb, low fat, low sugar, fasting, juicing, diet pills, water pills, laxitives, excessive working out - I've never been able to loose the weight and KEEP it off. I was banded on Dec 21, 2012 and feel AMAZING! I've never felt so alive!

I have a wonderful husband, Mark, who supports me through every turn in life. We have a precious daughter, born Jan. 18, 2012. She is the biggest blessing in our lives! She keeps me on my toes and is part of the reason I decided to get serious about my health. I wanted to be around when she starts school, graduates, gets married and has children of her own. I want to be the proverbial "hot momma" - and I [u]will[/u] make it to that point! I didn't gain the weight over night and I'm surely not going to loose it overnight.

I love being a mommy and I can't wait until her and I can walk together and play outside in the evenings, weather permitting. She is so fun and is always smiling - even when she is sick. She keeps me going and I am so motivated to be a good influence for her. I want her to love being active and not have to turn to wls as a resource. :wub:
