djl43069 7 Posted December 15, 2014 My new life date. I have leads had a problem with weight. I was still very active, until 1993. I was in a plane crash and really messed up my foot. I know some are wondering how can a messed up foot case weight gain. It's simple you get to the point where you don't eat because it hurts to stand up and cook. So basically my body went into starvation mode and it holds on to everything I eat. In 2004 I had the lab band surgery and where a lot of people were saying their band didn't work mine did great. I lost 170lbs was healthy and again very active. In 2008 my world turned upside down when I went in to have my band fix do to a slippage. The bad had to be removed due to it being slipped to long and of course the weight came back on with a vengeance. Here I am the day before my sleeve surgery and excited as well as nervous that the same thing will happen again. I'm glad I found this app and I hope to receive a lot of support as well as being a great supporter for others. Thanks for reading my journey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
