I have battledthe weight thing all of my life. I was 10 years old the first time I joined Weight Watchers. I remember being a kid and counting calories at birthday parties and sleepovers. Worrying about what I was eating at 10 years old. I know how to eat, its been instilled in me over the last 32 years and 32,000 diets I have been on. I have been to seminars at all three of our local hospitals regarding Bariatric Surgery. I have gone as far to have my Lap Band Surgery scheduled only to cancel it. That was Two years ago, and I have been kicking myself ever since. I recently went to a general surgeon who is recommending that I have the gastric sleeve surgery. I am seriously considering it. Weighing my options between Lap Band and Gastric Sleeve. I am on here looking for some suggestions and direction. !!!
