My story is like anybody else. Struggled with weight since my high school days and did the yoyo for many years. After quitting smoking in October 2011, I piled on more weight. January 2012, started going to the gym 5 days a week but no SIGNIFICANT results compared to the amount of work I was putting in. As a NY resolution in 2013, I changed my eating habits completely and slacked off on the gym. The weight started to come off but still struggled with portion control so decided to have surgery. Had started the process for gastric bypass but after not liking the way I was being treated by the doctor office and changed my mind, which turned out to be a good thing adn decided to pay for myself for the Lapband. And here I am. :)
