I HAVE FOUGHT MY WEIGHT MY WHOLE LIFE... BEGINNING FIRST DIET AT AGE 9. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING AVAILABLE DIET WISE AND HAD MANY SUCCESSES TO LOSE BUT NONE AS FAR AS KEEPING IT OFF. EACH POUND GAINED TOOK A LITTLE MORE OF MY SELF ESTEEM TILL I WAS STRUGGLING TO KEEP MY HEAD UP AND CONTINUE ON WITH MY LIFE! AFTER 5 YEARS OF NOT SPEAKING WITH MY FATHER I FELT GOD TELLING ME IT WAS TIME TO MEND OUR RELATIONSHIP. I CALLED HIM AND WE MET FOR LUNCH AND PICKED THINGS UP WHERE WE LEFT OFF. I RETURNED HOME AND THE NEXT WEEK HE CALLED TO OFFER TO PAY FOR ME TO HAVE THE LAP BAND AS MY INSURANCE HAD DENIED ME. BELIEVE IT OR NOT I WAS HESITANT AND HAD TO PRAY ABOUT IT. WELL HERE I AM LESS THEN 2 MONTHS AFTER THE OFFER, POST-OP AND VERY THANKFUL FOR THE HOPE I NOW HAVE TO LOSE THIS WEIGHT......
