Lulu66 0 Posted December 6, 2008 (edited) Hello y'all! My name is Bea, I am 42 years old and have 2 beautiful kids, a husband I adore and is been very supportive thoughout this journey. I have been yo-yo dieting since I can remember, always after loosing; the weight came back with a vengance some pounds added on... I got tired of it, want to feel good about myself .. the wakeup call for me was my dad having his 3rd stroke, diabetes II high blood pressure just to keep the list short... and we are our parents offspring. With a very good likelyhood of also getting these illensses when I get older and with some of it ...I might be bordeline. I got started in Sept. I am now on my pre-op diet and scheduled to have surgery on Dec. 16th. I am a little nervous and excited at the same time!! I know the lap-band will be a tool for life, to keep the weight in check once and for all !!! And I am ready.. Glad to be here and Seasons Greetings to All :thumbup::girl_hug: Bea Edited December 8, 2008 by Lulu66 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
