hey! I read your story... I too have been overweight most of my life.. struggled all through elementary, high school.. and mangaged to keep it under fair control in my early 20s.. then I blossomed... I never could get a doc in Tennessee to give me a letter for banding (they are a little backwards about things like this still).. so I made the decision to get it done regardless! I went to Tiajuana Mexico in June 08 and was banded on 20th! I have lost a little over 30 pounds and I WOULD DO IT AGAIN IN A HEARTBEAT! it isn't a "quick fix" but I believe I have the tools to succeed this time! My husband was born in Farmville Virginia... not far from you, I believe... Keep kin touch!
