I HAVE STRUGGLED WITH MY WEIGHT FOR YEARS. I HAD MY DAUGHTER AT THE YOUNG AGE OF 20 SO MY BODY SNAPPED RIGHT BACK. I WAS 200 POUNDS WHICH WASN'T BAD FOR MY HEIGHT OF 6'1. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD HIPS AND A BIG BUTT, BUT WHEN I WENT TO GREAT ADVENTURES WHEN I WAS 23 AND COULDN'T FIT ON THE RIDES DUE TO MY HIPS I WAS MORTIFIED AND EMBARRASSED!! I WAS 275 POUNDS. NOW I'M 30 AND HAVEN'T BEEN ON A PLANE IN 15 YEARS BECAUSE I WEIGHED 370 IN DECEMBER OF 2009. I SAID THIS IS IT I HAVE TO CHANGE BEFORE I INHERATE DIABETES OR HEART PROBLEMS LIKE MY MOTHER! SO I DECIDED TO DO THE LAPBAND BECAUSE IT WERE LESS RISKS AS FAR AS DEATH. ON MY OWN BECAUSE OF DETERMINATION I LOST 23 POUNDS JUST FROM NOT EATING MEAT AND ONLY EATING FISH AND VEGGIES FOR 3 MONTHS! I KNOW MYSELF.. I WOULD HAVE SAW RESULTS AND WENT BACK TO MY OLD EATING HABITS. BUT NOW I HAVE A TOOL TO HELP ME BRING FORTH THE NEW ME SAFELY WITH GREAT RESULTS! I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO A HEALTHY AND ACTIVE LIFE THANKS TO THE LAPBAND!
