NewDreams
I have been overweight since I was in 4th grade. I was always felt I was the biggest kid at school and at home. I would try different diets to only fail at them. This would make me feel so bad that I would gain ever more weight. I wanted to loss weight so I would feel like doing things with my family. Because I had such a young child I choose the lapband because the risk were so much lower. I had surgery on 12-18-07. I feel better since surgery and I am hoping to loose more weight. I am tired of being the BIG one at family gatherings, church, school and etc. I am also tired of not getting to do things I want becuase of my weight. When I was pregnant with my little girl I had diabetes & high blood pressure. She was very healthy and I am so thankful. At this point I realized that I must do something if I wanted to see her grow up.
