MY NAME IS ELIZABETH URANGA, I AM 31 YEARS OLD, MARRIED FOR 10 YEARS WITH 2 KIDS. MY SON IS 15 AND MY DAUGHTER IS 9. I WAS ALWAYS VERY THIN IN MY TEENS AND EARLY 20'S. BUT AS WE ALL KNOW WITH AGE COMES WIEGHT. OVER THE PAST 10 YEARS I HAVE PUT ON AN AVERAGE OF 10 LBS PER YEAR. AT MY HEAVIEST I WAS 185 LBS. DOESNT SOUND THAT BAD BUT AT 5 FT TALL IT WAS TAKING A TOLL ON MY BODY. FROM CHEST PAIN TO PAIN IN MY JOINTS, I KNEW I HAD TO DO SOMETHING. AFTER TRYING EVERY DIET, EXERSICE, HERBALIFE AND DETOXING TEAS, I WAS TIRED OF THE SEE SAW EFFECT. I RESEARCHED THE LAPBAND AND WITH THE SUPPORT OF MY HUSBAND AND KIDS, I TOOK THE NEXT STEP. I HAD IT INSERTED ON FEB. 15, 2010 AND IT HAS BEEN THE BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE. YES AT TIMES IT'S HARD BUT NOTHING IS EASY AND I JUST KEEP GOING FOWARD. TODAY ON AUGUST 26, 2010 I WIEGH AN AMAZING 137 LBS.
