My weight has been an issue for most of my life.  I was the "largest" of all my brothers and sisters... and I have 9 siblings!  I never felt like I belonged.  After high school and marriage, I had my first child at age 19- then 21- then 28.  Each pregnancy brought more weight, weight I never completely lost   Now its been 25+ years, and my weight has affected my health.  I have Type 2 Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, and High Cholesterol.  I've thought about weight loss surgery over the years, but often worried about what people would think.  Is this the easy way out?  I worrid about being judged.  Then it occured to me, who gives a sh...t?  It's my life!  I want to live a long deserving life with my new husband of 1 1/2 years.   I want weight loss surgery.  I met with a surgeon 6 months ago, decided on lap band... and I have been focused ever since.  I will beat my insurance at their game!
