Starting from my 20's I had always struggled with my weight. It may have been on and off during my childhood but i was never affected by it too much. After having 3 kids I realized that my weight was no longer going up and down it was just at a constant increase. I had never been much of a snacker but i was quite the carb junkie. Anything with pasta and bread i had to have it. When i reached an all time high of 250lbs , i started to get worried because i was having trouble doing the simple things like tie my shoes or even paint my toes, it had become difficult for me.I begin working out at work and was very dedicated to that for about 6 months but the weight was not coming off. 2 years ago a co-worker who was having the procedure done was talking to me about the lap band and I began to do some research. I initially went thru the first few consultations with True Results but after the pych eval I knew i wasnt ready. So a year later after having a severe chest pains and problems breathing I was advised by my physician that I was now diabetic and had high cholesterol. That was enough to make me decide to change my life. I talked it over with my partner and decided I would go for it full force this time. I am 3 days away from surgery..and although terrified im so ready for this new chapter in my life. Dr.Fox will be my surgeon and im quite pleased with the way things are going so far.
