My life long battle with my weight finally came to a head after I had my daughter. I had gained weight in places I never had before and all the usual methods no longer worked. Not to mention, all the 'usual methods' were also always temporary. Atkins, South Beach, Weight Watchers…the list went on and on but the one thing they all had in common was that in the end the weight always came back. I decided to do Lap Band because I was ready to change my life and the way I view food – I no longer want food to be what keeps me company or what I turn to when I’m happy or depressed. Food is something that tastes good and provides me the energy to go out there and enjoy life – it will no longer be what I center my life around.
