Hello everyone! My name is Leddie, I'm 34, mom of FIVE wonderful children. I've struggled with my weight since I was a teen ager. Over the last ten years, I have gained over a hundred pounds and am now weighing in at 351 pounds.
I have wanted the lap band surgery for years but even with two great insurance companies between my husband and I could not get it covered, sigh... I just happen to have an amazing brother who is going to pay for my surgery that is scheduled for the 9th of Septmeber! Love you Quil!!
Obesity is a killer in my family. I lost my mom four years ago at the tender age of 49. She lost her mother at 49...see a pattern?! I have all these kiddo's that need me, my oldest is 13 and my youngest is 4 months old.
I belong to a mom message board and have made amazing friends and found endless support through them. I look forward to creating lasting friendships with those of you on this new journey with me!!
Feel free to ask me questions, I'm open and honest and so ready to be healthy!
