Greetings All,My story is that of SO many others. I have struggled with weight my entire life. At birth I weighed 9lbs 14 oz and "blossomed" up to 307lbs. Over the years, I have been on every diet, product/pill, juice, plan,etc, etc. I would always lose. But as you know, the weight always came back. For the last 3 years I have been trying to conceive with absolutely NO success. Years ago, a GYN simply said to me 'yeah, I think you have polycystic overies; go online and read about it.' Well, years and doctors later, I've been able to learn so much more and fully understand why I have had such difficulty in becoming pregnant. Making the decision to have WLS wasn't a quick one. I've thought about it, decided against it, thought sbout it again, researched it again, tried more diet plans- - -just back and forth over the last couple of years. I have finally decided that I need more help than I've given myself with everything else I've done. And you know what? Once I made up my mind to do this, I've been so at peace with my decision. I've gone through the "process" with relative ease (meaning - no major roadblocks or setbacks) and am happy to say that I am literally waiting for the call from my surgeon's office with the date for my lap band surgery.
