I am a 30 year old female who had enough of being overweight. I've been overweight my entire life and needed to take charge of my body. I am currently a Nursing Student and have seen first hand with my patients what obesity related diseases can do to a body--that was NOT for me! I made the choice to look into Lap Band and from my first appointment with my surgeon to surgery date was 3 months. I couldn't be happier with my success and how I feel daily. I have a very supportive boyfriend who has been with me every step of the way! I could have not done this without his love, guidance, and constant support. He is amazing!
