Growing up, I was always skinny. I guess because I was super active. As I got older and started to have kids, I gained a lot of weight. As crazy as this may sound, I never saw the weight creeping upon me. I thought material in clothes had changed or I always had an excuse as to why my clothes didn't fit. Through having babies and a marriage, I always made sure everybody else was taken care of. When it came to taking care of myself, I just wasn't a priority........until the scale almost hit 300. I was very close at 299 lbs. I was determined to stop making excuses. I had to do something to help myself. So I researched many weight loss options and I found that the lapband was the best for me. So the journey started.
