OMG! I am Fat!
I used to never be this way. I gre up playing sports. I joined the Army out of high school and always worked out. I guess what I am trying to say is that I have always been in shape. The day I left the military I was a chisled 6'2 and 215lbs.
That was also that last day I can remember my body. I stopped working out. I eventually went through a divorce and within a year of leaving the military I was 285lbs. For the next 5 years I tried various diets and different workouts. I had various successes and sadly, mostly failures. I once got down to 245lbs but within a year I was back up again. I gave up working at losing weigfht 2 years ago. I was fighting a battle I was always going to lose. I am now at 38yrs old about 320lbs and growing.
About a year ago I began to seriously consider WLS options. Considering I have kids, I have opted to have a lap-band.
I am nervous and anxious to get my body back.
