Introducing Myself

Hello all!!!

Just wanted to stop in and introduce myself. I have been struggling with my weight since I began working an office job 23 years ago. I looked into Lap Band a few years back but believed I could "do it on my own". Yeah, right!!!:rolleyes3: I have a few things that motivated me to get this done.... 2 young daughters that I would like to see grow up, health issues ( high blood pressure/cholesterol, aching back) and a recent entry back into the single life. Ummm... not so much fun at the ripe age of 43 and being overweight. So, here I am hoping that these boards will keep me on track. I attended my first consultation last week and if all goes as planned, I should have a surgery date for sometime in November. I'm so ready for this!!!!

Looking forward to getting to know everyone :smile3:
