Hi, My name is Jessica I'm 40 years old, Live In CT, I started this LapBand Journey in Oct. 2011, I was always a healthy person I weighed 100 pounds until I hit my 30rds after having my daughter,My current weight is 222 which for me with such a small frame is alot of weight..I can't do the thing I want to with my daughter,My back hurts just walking out of my driveway, I'm always out of breath, I now have sleep apena due to all this weight..I want to get back down to my current weight..I know the lapband is just a tool, But I have to do most of the work myself...My phytrist did not clear me the first time I went to see him,I have another appt with him today and I'm hoping he clears me today..I've been doing the work taking all drs suggestions, being honest with him,I don't know what more he wants..When I first went to my first appt. with the lap band surgeon I weighed 249 pounds, I am now 222punds so that over 25 pounds I lost, I'm trying to eat healthy, I know thats the biggest mental change for me..I quanity of food I consume and eating "Healthy"..But I really don't know what more this phytrists wants from me???Hopefully he will clear me today, So I can get my Surgery Date..Thanks for reading my bio any suggestions I will definately take..

Thank You Girls, I know it takes alot nof mental change..I was always a healthy girl I weighed 100 pounds in high school and after until I hit my 30rds, I am now 222 pounds and want to get back into a healthy lifestyle again for myself and my daughters sake, I can't even keep up with her with all this extra weight I'm caring around I get out of breath, my back kills me just walking a few steps, I do take all the drs. recommendations seriously..I know the lap band is just a tool but I have to do the most work myself....
