I have always had weight issues. I was about 273 in 2006 when my husband of 20 years died at age 42. I was devastated and since I had lost my job in Michigan I moved with my company and yongest son to IL. I lost almost 50 pounds and 1 1/2 years later met my soon to be second husband. We have been together 4 1/2 years and married for 6 months. I have put the 50 pounds back on and have a lot more medical issues now. I can't work out like I did 5 years ago and I am having trouble taking it off now. For my health, my doctor mentioned the lap band surgery to me. I have to change my insurance in January in order to get it done.
