My story is like so many others...I have been overweight my entire life, starting in childhood. I was 150lbs when I graduated high school. About 160 in college and in the 170's when I had my daughter. I promptly gained 40 lbs after I gave birth and it has steadily gone uphill since. I am now at an all-time high of 240 and can not continue at this weight. I actually had a lapband placed 2 years ago and it never worked. I lost 20 lbs due to the liquid 500 calorie diet and never lost anything else. So I am having my band removed and going to a lap bypass on 7/30/07.
