SEANSTER25

hi, im sean im 25 years old and have struggled with my weight forever. when I was 19 I was at my heaviest weight around 445 I was in terrible shape and hated myself and didn't really care if I lived or died. so I made a decision to lose the weight, at this time in my life i was caring for my grandparents who were both ill, my grandfather of cancer, so I stayed with them and cooked cleaned and managed all their business/finances and appts. during this time I had plenty of time to eat clean and go to the gym sometimes twice a day 6 days a week. in 2 years time I managed to lose 147 lbs !! my lightest weight ever 298!! I felt awesome. this was near being skinny for me keep in mind im 6'6 I swore to myself I would never go back to morbid obesity. So by that time my grandfather had passed and my grandmother was doing good so I had to get back to the real world and start back up my college classes and go to work I got a third shift job and worked it for the next several years....fast forward I got married and had a son and let myself go so nearing my heaviest weight again I decided to get the lap band. I was banded last week 4/24/14 after months of running around and dealing with my insurance company ive lost fifteen lbs in one week so now im looking forward to getting the weight off and keeping it off forever!!!!
