I was never overweight growing up - my "before" before pics are of me at age 20, 5'4" 118lbs.  I married young, had kids young (early 20's) and after 10 years of rocky marriage and 2 wonderful boys, I got divorced.  At that point I was 228lbs.  That was 12 years ago.  Since then I've yo-yo'd between 167 and now at 205.  I'm going thru a rough phase with being an empty nester and then at my lowest 167 a few years ago life was great and was dating and had my heart broken, changed jobs, now am going thru job change again, not dating anyone, basically a recluse accept for occasional happy hour with old friends and I just feel like the biggest loser (and not the kind from the tv show).  So...I'm going to be banded in 2 weeks to try to stop the yo-yo'ing once and for all.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it.  I think.:)
