Hello ~
I'm new to this so bare with me. I'm a 38 years old wife and a mother of 2 kids and 2 grandkids. I've always had to deal with weight problems I have tried everything to lose weight. In 1998 I was diagnoised with Diabetes and my life change really quick. I had to start to watch everything I ate as well counting carbs and calories on a daily bases. I start off giving myself 2 shots a day, but as the years pass things have change. I now give myself 5 shots a day and I have to check my blood sugar 10 times a day. I've decided I will try and do something to help me lose weight. I join curves and was consisted for over a year and only lost a total of 10 to 15lbs. I don't want people to think I'm going out the easy way, but for me it's all about getting healthy. I have gained all the weight back and then some. I started to check other options and than my doctor informed me of the Lap Band surgery. He thought it would be great, because several of his other patients that are diabetic's have had great success with the surgery. So here I am trying to talk to people who already had the surgery done.
