I was always small growing up even in high school. When I got married I weighed 135 after I had my second son I gained over 60 pounds. I kept gaining after that my confidence level went way down which effected me in many ways depression, energy level, etc. I had tried many many diets I just could not get it together. One day while at the grocery store I met up with an old time family friend who had lost over 80 pounds and I asked her how she said lapband. When I got home I started to search the web about information on Lapband I read a lot of information about it and decided to search for a surgeon and I found Dr. Enochs a lot people had lapband with him so, I decided to proceed to make an appointment April 28th 2010. I went through a lot of test and I was approved by insurance and scheduled for surgery on June 4th 2010. I could not believe I was going to have it done. The surgery went well but, I have been on a roller coaster ride since I was thinking it would just melt of if I followed all the lapband rules but, however it is a slow process so it does take a lot of patients. A whole lot.
