Hi!  My name is Samantha and I have been trying everything under he sun to lose weight for several years now.  My weight has fluxuated a lot over the years but has gradually gotten higher and higher then last 10 years.  I got heavy in high school but then lost it all for many years but then I got married and had children, it's been all down hill since then.  Well, my weight anyway.  I have lost weight before but it seems like there is nothing that causes me to actually lose as of now.  It's been a very crazy journey but I am now getting ready to have the lapband surgery.  I am VERY excited.  My surgery is scheduled for Friday, Sept. 11th.  I am having the surgery done in Tijuana, Mexico by Dr. Liza Maria Pompa Gonzales.  Well, that's all for now.
