I have been obese and on diets for most of my life. I was born with big hips and big thighs, my baby pics don't lie! Most of the women on my mom's side were heavy from my great grandmother, grandmother and great aunt.
My first time dieting was when I was 12, and it's been a roller coaster ride ever since. I have finally yo-yoed myself up to 260 lbs and I am tired of it. I can't breathe, I have sleep apnea, and high blood pressure that just doesn't want to be controlled, even though I'm taking 3 meds a day for it. I am tired of being sick and tired every day, even on the days I might feel just a tad bit better. There has got to be a better way, and I believe the lap band is my answer.
