Hi ,I'm a native of NC. I'm like every one else,I've been on this "obesity roller coaster"
all of my life.I guess I can say " Been there ,done that" kinda thing. Not making any excuses, just never made up my mind. "Mind over Matter", which is food. I was raised to eat all foods breads, syrups, pancakes, My grandmother use to bake all kinds of homemade cakes, puddings, sweets every day , with greasy deep fried chicken, All southern cooking. So one day I became addicted to food . Not only did I eat unhealthy foods, I ate just because it taste good, And continue to want more more more, never stopping when my stomach says full .
I would diet with diet pills, lose some weight, keep it off maybe 4-6 months gain it back. The older i got the worst it became. I even started taking the b12 injections with the Phen , lost about 36 lbs. And gained about 43 lbs. back. Atkins, weight watcher, metoblite,
fastin, on and on. I smoked cigarettes for about 16 years, Not a heavy smoker, but a smoker. i quite this year have not had another one. Gaining more and more weight, Seem to be out of control.
But I know I have to take control of my eatting habit, or it will kill me earlier, than God's plan. I just wish that the approval would come soon , So that I can start taking my life back. I know that the Lap band is just a tool, but It will help me control my self because I know it is there and Food gets stuck , I have to excercise in order for it to work, I have to work it . This gives me motivation.
"Self" (flesh) have to die, and we have to kill it. let it scream, have a temper tandram. Continue, be strong. Say No! I will not be defeated, I will win.
