Lori S.
I am 46 yrs old ( I don't feel that old though) married mother of two great kids ages 23 and 19. I have been overweight most of my adult life. I have tried just about everything to lose weight from Weight Watchers ( 3 times) Nutri System (2 times), Metabalife, SlimFast, Herbalife and the list goes on. I knew I needed to lose weight but about a year and a half ago my doctor put me on high blood pressure medication. You'd think that would be motivation enough to lose some of the weight but here I am 20+ pounds heavier. A friend of mine started looking into WLS options and she told me about the LapBand. I was so interested I started doing some research on my own. On August 10th 07 I met with the Dr I hope will be doing my surgery. I am now waiting for all my paperwork to be submitted to him so that his office can send it to my Insurance for approval. So, this is the begining of my story...
