I am not really sure how to start. I have be fighting obiesity my whole adult life. I have tried everything from no carb diets to gyms 4 days a week with no cheat weekends(unlike others i had partnered with) while they were extremly successful I did as usual lose ten pounds and start gaining again. I then was put on a medication from my doctor that helped me lose about 35lb in about a year and a half was feeling pretty good but then got pregnant and then after baby she put me back on the meds but it no longer worked even with increased doses. Then I tryed Weight Watchers my sister in law has had amazing success, but agian with me after about 6 months i lost 11.4 lbs and started gaining again and i didnt have a blizzard every month. So after all this failure I had checked online for lapband but was not sure that i qaulified because i didnt have blood pressure issues or anything, but talked to the doc and here i am four days after my surgery and DREAMINGTHIN!
