twinkee

Before i had kids i was115 pounds. After having 4 kids I was happy with my body, not that I looked like j-lo but was size 8 in pants and felt just fine. Never was on diets my highest weight was 150. Well... I now have six children because I had twins that are now a little over a year and I am 198 pounds 5 feet tall and where size 14:( and suffer from high blood pressure.... My knees are always in pain ... My pcp says its all from all the weight I have put on... And that my depression could be also just cause I don't fit in to none of my old clothes... Is the lap band a good choice?? Am I being ridiculous? I want to feel better.... Mentally and physically... I have never been a plus size. Please no one get offended because I know that my weight is under 200.

My bmi is kinda low because of the same reason i have been on phentermine for weight lose .... When I went to my first consultation they said if I lose one more pound they won't approve I got frustrated... So haven't took my pills. In a week and now I'm made cause I gain 4 pounds:( so what am I suppose to do? Not take the pill for how ever long and gain weight? That would be crazy...

Best wishes

Omg thank u... I think what makes it hard is that I have to cook meals for my kids I can't just let them starve or let them live off Cereal and chef boyardi. And also the fact that I haven't told anyone about it because its personal to me...

Can anyone tell me the process I have a first apointment on the 26 how long after that will the surgery come?
