I am a 30 year old mom, wife, sister, daughter, friend and teacher. I have my Lap-Band surgery scheduled for July 9th, and I can hardly wait. I have been overweight all of my adult life and am looking forward to buying clothes from "normal stores". I have 15 month old twin daughters, Gretchen and Emma, that I need to live for. They are my whole world and I want to be around to see them grow up. It is not fair to them to have a mother that can't keep up with them because of weight issues. I also want to feel attractive again, and right now I don't. My husband is so supportive and I know he loves me just the way I am, but this is about me. I want to feel good about myself again, physically and emotionally. I hope this is the "tool" that will help me to succeed. I give my all to everything I do. I am a special education teacher that is working toward getting national board certification. I have worked hard to get where I am, but haven't focused on my health during my journey. I love my family and want to be able to give them 100%! If you are taking the time to read this, please take the time to say a prayer for me as I begin my weight loss journey!
