[font=comic sans ms,cursive][size=5][color=#800080]Hi, [/color][/size][/font]
[font=comic sans ms,cursive][size=5][color=#800080]My name is Sue and Ive been overweight my entire life. I have been on every diet imaginable at one time or another with no success. My first diet was 1000 cals. a day when I was about 13. [/color][/size][/font]
[font=comic sans ms,cursive][size=5][color=#800080]I had a bout of Reactive Arthritis in 2007 that lasted for about a year. During that year I was taking Prenisone and nsaids daily to control the pain and swelling of my joints. That caused the last 25lbs I gained before my surgery in 2008. [/color][/size][/font]
[font=comic sans ms,cursive][size=5][color=#800080]I also have stubborn high blood pressure. I take 4 medications to keep it under control. So between the arthritis and the high blood pressure I didn't have trouble getting my insurance company to approve my lap band surgery.[/color][/size][/font]
[font=comic sans ms,cursive][size=5][color=#800080]BUT......I didn't follow the eating program AFTER surgery. Why???? I have no good answer for that. So that is why I haven't lost much weight. I didn't do MY part.[/color][/size][/font]
[font=comic sans ms,cursive][size=5][color=#800080]SO......I dug out my info given to me at surgery time and buried myself in this website and Im getting started. So, wish me luck....here I go....[/color][/size][/font]
