After 57 years of struggling with my weight.... Wait!! I shouldn't count those years I was not obese... So let's make that 51 years of struggling with my weight, I had hit my all time high. Right now i am too embarrassed to give that number. But someday day I know I will post it and go from there. My low point hit me when I had finished my MA degree in teaching. I no longer had a goal to work for. So, I signed up for WW. It did work for me. Well, actually I was able to maintain my weight and not gain anything.
My GP Dr. and I decided that I needed to do something drastic. I attended a lapband seminar and within 2 and 1/2 months I was in bandland. I didn't have to jump through insurance hoops because WLS is excluded at my place of work. I save up 1/2 of the required fee and charged the rest. It was the best move of my life. I wold do it again in a heartbeat!
I have had lots of stumbling blocks and have dealt with health issues, but after 15 months with a lapband, I am 60 lbs lighter and am feeling good.
