I have struggled with my weight for as long as I can remember. I feel like I have been on every diet known to man, but I'm sure that there are probably a couple that I have missed somewhere. I have lost all of my weight and gotten to goal twice in my life, and then gained it all back plus. I don't think I need to tell anyone who has struggled with their weight how heart breaking that is. In my younger years my weight was just a self esteem and social problem, but as I've gotten older it has become a very serious health issue. To name a few....high blood pressure, heart problems, and diabetes. I am hoping that my lap-band will be the tool that finally helps me to get my weight off and keep it off for good. More than any number on a scale my goal is to be healthy and happy!
