As a teenager I was active and never really had an weight issues. After the birth of my first child the weight started to come on and my weight would be up and down. After 2 more children the weight kept creeping up the scale. I tried numerous diets with limit success, but something would sidetracked the weight loss and the weight would come back plus a little more each time.
In the last year or so my kids have been talking to me and worried about my weight. So remember a talk that I had with my doctor a couple of years ago I started to search out surgery options. After some long discussions with family and few close friends I decided on Lap Band Surgery. Having gone through the consulting stage I am now booked for surgery on April 11, 2007. I am a little nervous but with my son getting engaged last year and the wedding planned for late August I am sure that now is the right time.
