After the familiar story of up and down weight loss, the yo-yo diet, I decided to go for the gastric banding to end it. I did it all- had the surgery, joined the gym, saw a nutritionist, and changed the household eating habits. That to me was the key- it had to be the household. I needed to make sure everyone was making healthy choices. I've already lost 25 lbs in just 7 weeks and had just one fill, 3m.
