At 11 my Grandma said I'd be such a pretty girl if I'd just lose weight! I'm now 56 and have been on so many kinds of diets, including numerous times with Weight Watchers. I've been limping and in pain for 18 months now due to the strain on my joints and have had knee surgery and plantar fasciitis as well as Lis Franke (which is a fracture to the arch of the foot). I met a gal a year ago who had surgery with Dr. Lauter and she encouraged me to look into it. I finally did and will have surgery Aug 1, 2007. My husband is supportive but scared about this. He is my best friend and I want to be able to keep up with him and our grandchild. With God's help, this surgery will be the start of my new life. My weight on the day of surgery was 234.
