I am 18 years old and just recently had a baby boy in March of 2010. I am married to an airman. We are from Ohio but he got stationed here in Delaware. Where we know no one. I got very depressed and sad and my comfort is ofeating. So I gained even more weight. I have always been heavy my entire life. When we moved to Delaware Isaw a billboard for lapband and decided to go on the website and check it out. Now here I am 5 months later and getting the surgery in 19 days! I cannot wait. I know it will be a rough journey but well worth it. I just don't want my son to have a heavy mom. I want to be his class helper and go on field trips with him andmy weight is just keeping me back from doing things I want to do in life. So I'm hoping to live a healthier more productive lifestye. :)
