well my story hmmmm.... well it is lil crazy!!! lol my journey started about in 2002 when i started researching weightloss methods. At the age of 17 with full supprot of my extremely wonderful parents i decided to have the lapband system put in. As you can imagine at 17 i couldnt of been more excited but little did i know that october 7th 2003 would be the worst day of mine and parents life!!!! According to my surgeon the minute i was put under anesthesia i had an immediate allergic reaction. I woke up in the icu with a tube in my throat and some young guy who i had never seen before telling me i was lucky to be alive. But to me that wasnt the worst part!!!!! As i started to come around and realize that something was wrong i had realized that i had no symptoms like my doctor said i would have coming out of surgery. Suddenly it came right to me with a huge amount of tears and disappointment that my surgery never had happened! Nothing,....... nada....... zlich!!! I wasnt at any point even prepped or cleaned for surgery!!!! I left the hospital and immediately fell into a deep depression. I always told myself from that day on surgery would never be an option for me. But after finding myself one with god and finding his guidance four years later i was given the courage and faced my deepest fears and was successfully banded on march 13th 2008!! woot woot!! i am soooo happy to be alive and thrilled that god has given me the strength and courage to make myself happy and healthy!!!!! I wouldnt change my crazy journey for anything i have learned soooo much about myself!!!! I would love to meet people who are experiencing the same things as me and to build new friendships. So feel free to message me cuz after all we all need to stick with eachother!!!!
