Well, my story is just like everyone elses.. i tried the diets and exercise...and everytime i gained my weight back plus some! When i met my husband i was 180. Then we got married and i started eating more, then we got prego and i ate even more. I made my way back up to 249. While in wal mart one day shopping with my son, a young lady and her boyfriend were pointing and snickering at me... Thank God my son is not old enough to understand what was happened, but right then and there i told myself that I had to do something about it b/4 he would understand. I didn't want to be the FAT mom taking there child to school and being made fun of. So i applied for the surgery and everything fell into place like GOD had it under control.
I was banded 12/14/09. Everyone asked why b/4 CHristmas... i said well, food got me to where i am, so why not start here.
My husband is in the air force, he left in aug of 09 and will be home april 2010. So i will be a new woman! Im ready for this journey and ready to be a healthy active mom for my son!
