OK SO HERE'S THE SKINNY ON ME, WHEN I WAS FIVE MY GRANDMOTHER THOUGHT I WAS GONNA DIE OF MALNUTRITON BECAUSE I WAS SO THIN, SO SHE WOULD SHOVE FOOD DOWN MY THROAT TO MAKE ME EAT. WHEN I WAS ABOUT 8 I GOT CHUNKY AND STAYED THAT WAY TIL ABOUT THE SUMMER OF MY 8TH GRADE YEAR. HIGH SCHOOL CAME AROUND AND I WAS WORKING OUT AND LOSING WEIGHT MY THINEST WAS 139. AHH HOW I REMEMBER THOSE DAYS.
IT WAS THE SUMMER OF MY SOPHMORE YEAR, JUNE 25 1995 TO BE EXACT AND I WOKE UP THAT MORNING TO FIND MY DAD LAYING ON THE FLOOR OF OUR LIVING ROOM, HIS FACE PURPLE LIKE A PLUM. I TRIED TO PERFORM CPR ON HIM BUT NOTHING WORKED. THE PARAMEDICS CAME AND TOOK HIM TO THE HOSPITAL. THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. SO HE DIDNT MAKE IT. I WAS SO DEPRESSED THAT SUMMER I GAINED 60LBS IN 2 1/2 MONTHS! AFTER THAT ITS BEEN A STRUGGLE FOR ME TO TAKE OFF THE WEIGHT. IVE TRIED EVERYTHING AND I JUST KEEP PUTTING IT BACK ON.
ABOUT A YEAR AGO MY HUSBAND HAD THE RNY DONE, AFTER I SAW HOW IT HELPED HIM AND HOW MUCH ENERGY HE HAD I DECIDED THAT I SHOULD LOOK INTO DOING SOMETHING FOR MYSELF, I FEEL BAD THAT I HAVE NO ENERGY OR NEED FOR ANYTHING, AND I DONT THINK THATS FAIR TO MY HUSBAND OR STEP SON. SO I MADE THE CHOICE TO GET THE LAP-BAND DONE.
SO HERE I AM READY AND WAITING TO BE BANDED AND ON THE LOSING SIDE!
