I started gaining weight in 1998 when I moved from NY to WA state. I was depressed because I had left everyone I knew and loved behind, except for my husband. I have been gaining ever since and it seems like I was gaining 10 punds per year. I decided, after numerous attempts at weight loss through different programs and calorie counting, that I had to do something to get my weight under control. I am a Type 1 diabetic and I'm getting older, so I decided it was time to get banded.
