I'm 45 yo and I've been struggling most of my life with my weight as far back as 9yo. There is not one year of my life that I didn't diet and try to lose weight. The lowest my weight has been was 125. That was in high school and I was a feature twirler. Even then I struggled. I remember my coach sitting with me at lunch making sure I didn't overeat. I had to weigh in on Friday mornings (game day). If I weighed over 130 I wasn't allowed to twirl that night. I really freaked out if it were that time of the month. If that were the case I would take diet pills, make myself throw up and skip meals just so I wouldn't go over the 130 limit. I never did miss a game. After graduation I was so thrilled with this weight limit not hanging over my head anymore. I went crazy with food. I finally ate without ristrictions. I got married and had three children. That added pounds as well. It's been nothing but a downhill slide since then. My largest has been 250. There's not a diet I haven't tried. My latest was LA wt loss. I got down to 222. Things were going well then the clinic closed. I decided that was it. I've had it with diets and struggling. I decided on the lapband. I got approved for financing through my bank and CareCredit. I had surgery on April 17th, 2009. My first fill takes place on June 15th. I'm so excited. I can't wait to go shopping for pretty clothes. I can't wait to see what my family and friends reactions will be. Most of all I can't wait to feel healthy and pretty again.
