I have been trying to lose weight all my life. ever since i was little i have been on the plus side and i have always been the fat girl. As i grew older some of my weight did slim down but i would still gradually gain weight and i could no longer take. When i was pregnant with my daughter i had gotten 3lbs away from 300lbs. I did not like that at all. Although i did understand that i was pregnant, however, i didn't like being that big. I made a vow to never get that big again. well in 2008 i found out i was again a few lbs from being 300 and i knew i had to do something so i and my cousin looked into the lap band surgery. in june of 2008 i had my surgery i felt great and did as follows. i lost a nice amount of weight. 35 lbs to be exact. However, during that time i had become disstressed and things went down hill from there. No i have not gain any weight but I have not lost any more weight either. Now more than ever i need the support of my fellow people who are going thur the same as I.
