Hmmmm, what story? I was fat! I was truning 30 in 2009 - my Dad's family has a history of heart disease . . . . my dad has been disabled since he was 35 for heart problems. My mom has a history of high blood pressure. I have been interested in the LapBand/Gastric Bypass for nearly 10 years but had been afraid. Figured I wasn't getting any younger and I HAD to do something about it now! Haven't really been a diet freak. Really have just tried 2 diets in my life - Low Fat and Low Carb. Always been a successful dieter - but I needed to lose nearly 200 lbs and needed some help. So I decided to do the lap band!
