Hi, my name is Lisa and I have been over weight my entire life. Ever since I can remember, every picture ever taken- there it is me " fat". It has affected all aspects of my life one way or another, at one time or another. I have been called every name in the book from the time I was 8 years old. I learned to laugh at it, at myself. Unfortunately, this made me hide and become an emotional eater. Therefore, I through myself into my schooling, where I couldn't get hurt.
I have tried every diet that I heard about, or read about. Yes, the weight came off long enough for me to get comfortable, loose my edge and then BANG there it was back on and then some. Yo-yo dieting that was my life. My weight became my obsession. All through my high school years, past university.....I disallowed myself to do things or go places because I was an absolute wreck about what I looked like.
I took me a long time, but I have finally arrived. I made the decision to get the lap-band after alot of research and heavy conversations with my husband. I am proud to say that on June 20th,2008- I will get banded. I am very excited...
