I have been overweight my entire adult life... I always just accepted that this was my lot in life, I'm shaped like an apple( just like my mom was) I would always be the chubby, funny, self deprecating girl in the group and I wouldn't say I was OK with it, but, it was what it was..I've been on many diets always lost around 20 lbs or so and then get frustrated that it wasn't coming off fast enough...
I've been mulling around in my head lap-band since I heard of it, when a friend of my hubby's had sleeve surgery 3 yrs ago...it was a huge decision to to make and I didn't decide to actually go for it until my blood sugars went out of control.
I've been type 2 for 15 yrs well controlled until 2 yrs ago..I went from being on 1 medication for it... to 2 medications and 2 different shots and still waking up high...
I really felt that if I didn't do something NOW...I'd slowly be killing myself..getting more and more complications...
I'm looking forward to a new healthy life and I'd be lying if I didn't say that buying clothes in a regular size, has me giddy
