All my life I have always been the fat girl. I never let it get in my way until a year ago. I start seeing a big change in my health as far as swelling not being able to stand for long periods of time . I also seen the change in my eeryday living, I didnt want to go any where , I didn;t want to do anything just misarable. I even seen a change in my marriage (if you know what I mean). I said to myself that enough is a enough, I need to make a cahnge. I had reach the heaviest that I thought that I was going to reach and it was not okay. This time last year I was sitting on my couch watching soap opras and seen a commercial about the lap band surgery, I though to myself it wouldn't hurt to get some information. So I did and set up appointments to go to a seminar. Did I go no! Another week went by and I see another commercial and I said to myself I got to do something . I made the call to another place that did the weight loss surgery and made an appointment and not only that they gave me alot of information on the surgery over the phone , they also let me know that this was going to be a long process and gave me question that I needed to ask my insurance company. This time it seemed different. So I called the insurance company and they said they covered it and told me what I had to do and said the same thing that the people told me that this was going to be a long process.
Time went on and I went to all my appointments and did the necessary things and gained another 15# and was appoved for the surgery and scheduled a date and chickened out. Everyone was so upset at me including myself , so I rescheduled and I had my surgery on March 2,2009.
A year ago I was sitting on my couch thinking of how this would work out and now I am 40# lighter and know how this is going to work out.
