Hola Everyone!
Well I am 21 Years old, and I have been struggling with my weight for as long as I can remember. I have tried every diet, pill, and magic solution out there and as you can see it hasn't helped. The number on the scale just kept climbing and climbing. I realized I needed help when I couldn't do the simplest things without feeling like I was going to die. Every muscle in my body began to hurt constantly and I began having chest pains all day long. My mom had Gastric Bypass 3 years ago and has been wonderful ever since so when I began looking into weight loss surgery she has been my biggest support. I decided against Gastric Bypass and have been very focused on getting the Lap Band, it just seems right for me. I picked a surgeon and have met with him and things seem very postive. I have an appointment with my PCP on November 21st to get the ball rolling with her and then it goes to my insurance, hopefully they approve me but even if they don't I am going to find a way to get this no matter what. I want to be healthy.
