All my life I was thin.Not sickly thin...pretty close to perfect actually...Then it happened!The miracle of birth!!!With my 1st child I bounced back to normal..I was active and he was hyperactive...then the 2nd..then the 3rd..wow..with the 4th and at the age of 32 and a C-Section and 2 additional stepchildren you wouldve expected an anorexic mom but NO I was under so much stress I couldnt lose the weight I gained and kept on adding to it.Eating late at night and all the wrong foods..comfort foods go a long way and with a large family there were always birthday parties,christening parties,graduation parties...you get the picture!!!Pretty soon I was topping the scales close to 250 lbs!!!Tried Curves,Weight Watchers, you name it...walked 5 miles 4 times a week ..I was toned but fat.Dam...how fair was that??? I was miserable .Went from a size 8 to a 24. Always felt good about me though...in the sense of my self esteem(especially on the outside)didnt affect my job or personality..just wanted to look better and sexier to my husband(although he always said I was sexy..I had to Believe it)Well then a tv comercial caught the attention of my husband one evening..we checked into it ...attended the seminar..did some research..had the operation in April of 2008 and I am 149lbs. down to an 8 again looking fine and feeling free.I am so happy that modern medicine and the technology made available to good doctors has made it possible for me to be healthier and happier!!!I recommend to anyone who wants to save their life to seek out this opportunity.
