Well where do I start ...I'm 28 years young. I have always been over weight my whole life . It's been hard and sad all at the same time . I am very down on myslf over my weight. Back in febuary my father went for the lapband and had a heart issue while on the table, so unfortunately he could not have it done. That made me really open up my eyes. I contacted my dads doctor and went for my consult. Thinking to myslf ...I may not make the bmi requirerments.(5'2 223lbs)... I walked out of there with a schedule surgery date two mths later (9/8/11) . So excited I went home right away and scheduled all my doctors appointments and had them all done by the end of that mth. Surgery went well no problems. My doctor was great answered all my questions and the staff in his office are all so nice ...I couldn't of picked a better place to go. I'm a mth out of surgery ..lost 14 lbs so far...at times I feel like its not moving fast enough ..I'm active every day 5 mile walks or more ...I'm taking it one day at a time. ~SLOW AND STEADY WIN THE RACE~
