I've been gaining weight since about the 5th grade. When i was about 14 i finally tried to change by going to fat camps and trying numerous diets. Nothing ever work in the long term. Finally in May 2006 at my highest weight of 350 lbs. i got Lap Band surgery. The first few months were rocky but But around August i started getting on track - the last month before i moved back out to California i lost 20 pounds and in 5 months post op i lost 60 pounds. After i moved back out to Los Angeles things changed. I didn't have enough money to join a gym or eat right. There really Isn't any excuse but the fact is i gained about 20 pounds a year later. Now I've joined this site to stay motivated and finally reach goal. I need all the help i can get. I can't wait to feel healthy and stop letting my weight keep me from life.
