I am currently 38 years old and have struggled with my weight all my life. I was born with spina bifida, but was able to walk unassisted until I was about 28, then I started having back surgeries. Now, I have to use a crutch to walk and a wheelchair for any long distances. Unfortunately, I have had quite a few problems the last couple years so it's hard for me to get the exercise I need and have gained a lot of weight in the last year. I can lose weight, but my problem is keeping it off. I have lost about 80 pounds and gained it back a couple times in my life. Right now, I am thinking I might try the lap band procedure. I haven't completely decided yet, so that's why I joined this group. Hopefully, I can make some friends and make an informed decision before I have another surgery done. Thanks for reading this and I hope to talk to some of you soon!
