Ok here we go.  I was born in Alexandria, LA and that should say enough.....I'm a good ole fashion Southern Gurl!  The last time I can recall being slim is maybe 5th or 6th grade.  I have always been a healthy girl and considered myself to be bigg boned and not fat.  I have never had self esteem issues, thank goodness, and have always carried my weight fairly well.  My problem is food tastes so good and we have so many options, that I just enjoy and never care about the consequences.  Well i'm pushing 40 with a quickness and decided it is time to take control of my life.  I was a smoker ( quit Nov 6th 2008 @ 8pm-the last cig).  I quit because Dr Snyder will not work with patients who smoke, bottom line.  I saw a commercial one night for the lap band and really paid attention to the advertisement and started to imagine myself wearing less than a size 22-18 (that's my Yo-Yo range).  I do excercise on a regular basis, but the weight just won't go away.  I have a dear friend/co-worker who I discussed the commercial with and she said.....let's do it!  SO.......here I am.  Enjoy the ride and please let me know if it is good or bad.  Thanks for checking me out and hopefully we can see what the results will be.
