Hello everyone,
I guess this is where I write about me so here it goes. I first realized I had a problem back in 2002. I had had my son in September of 02 and a month after I had him i gained up to 385. I know I don't weigh that now but I have been trying since then to get help with my weight. all my Dr. kept telling me way diet and exercise. I tried a bunch of different ones and none seemed to help. finally i kind of gave up because it seemed I would never get the help I needed. Then I got pregnant with my daughter in 06. I figured it was just the way my biological clock ran that I couldn't get pregnant sooner. I went down to 309 after I had her then in the last two years I hardly have eaten anything at times and I gained the weight back to where I am at the 340 mark again. They have no idea why I keep gaining the weight and they told me Diet and exercise again. I was talking to my step mom Anna Davis and explaining to her that I have heard and read all about this weight loss surgery but no one at my Dr's office thinks I need it. I said I look at myself and I believe I need help. By this point she had had Lap Band done with Dr. Bruce at Grandveiw and has lost quite a bit. She had the procedure done due to back problems and told me to contact him. Once I contacted his office and got scheduled for all the good things I have been excited since. I was approved for everything and told no you do have a problem and we are going to help you out. I was so relieved that finally someone believes me and cares enough to help. Hopefully I can get down to my goal weight and live the rest of my life happily and healthy. Thanks to all those who have gotten me this far! Also thanks to those who are supportive of my needs and caring enough to get me through this and anything else that I will need to lean on them for! Without you all I don't know what I would have done!
