My name is LaDawn and I'm 29 years old. I have been on the "thick" side all of my life. Some days I don't even notice how big I am until I go clothes shopping, try to walk a flight of stairs or get on a scale. Everyone in my family is on the thinner side, so growing up was hard when I was a preteen outweighing my mother by atleast 60 lbs. I started out dieting i think as early as 16 but with no luck..i'd loose the initial 10 pounds then give up cause it was too hard to continue. So here I am today, the biggest I've ever been, looking into having the lapband procedure. I've read all the pro and cons, personal testimonies, along with the ever so faithful bloggers who document their experiences. I really want to do this cause i need a lifestyle change and I believe that the lapband is just the tool to help point me in the right direction. I have already started the procedure by going to my first information session. Next I have an appt with the surgeon later this month and I'm anxious to see where it all goes from there.
