greetings! My name is Carrie and I am 45 years old, and have had weight issues for the last 11 years, since the birth of my son. I have been on every diet out there, some more than once. while I lose weight, it always comes back and then some. At this point I am the heaviest I have ever been, and have finally decided to take a little stricter course of action. I have researched, and talked, and read and finally decided on LBS. I walked through WLS surgery with my mother 2 years ago, and between her and my husband, I have much support!
I have a low BMI, but high cholesterol, and bordering on high blood pressure. I have decided to do this while I have a smaller portion to lose, as opposed to later.
