I have always been over weight...and I suppose like many I just assumed that was how I was going to be...until one day I went to the eye doctor and she told me from being so over weight it was affecting my eyes...I had allowed myself to get to 407 pds...I was unable to play with my daughter or take a flight of stairs for that matter...It was time to make a change...so I did...I was banded May 27th of 2009...one of the best decisions I have ever made...I currently am 251 after 8 months and am able to do normal things again...I look forward to the future and whats to come!
