Hello! 
A little about myself: I'm 38, married, and have a wonderful daughter.
I have been in denial about how much weight I have gained for a few years now.
I gained this weight after having my daughter.
I have tried every diet out there. Some I have had results with...but not long lasting.
This past year I have taken a good look at myself and decided that I NEED TO CHANGE THINGS IN MY LIFE!!!
I can barely walk across the street, out of breath alot, aches and pains (back etc.) have become anti-social, and have to rely on my husband and daughter to help me do the simplest of things. Plus I just got diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. Getting very depressed!
I started looking into WLS by accident. I think an add about the lapband popped up on a youtube page I was on. I clicked on it
and was intrigued. I had never thought about surgery before. Needless to say, I started researching and here I am.
At first I thought I wanted the lapband, but now I think I am more partial to the gastric sleeve. Whatever the doc says I will go for though.
I haven't even had a consultation yet. But at least Im on the wait list now! I just pray that I will be a good candidate for surgery!
I love this site and am so glad I came upon it! I will share my journey with others as they have shared with me!
