I was born and raised in Houson, Tx. I had a fair child hood. I grew up in a big family. I first started noticing my weight problem as a teenager. I was always bigger than most girls in my class. I really didn't think to much of it because it didn't affect my life in a bad way at that time. I still had friends and I still had boyfriends so i really didnt care that i was a little bigger than most girls my age. It really started bothering me when I got pregnant at the age of 17. I gained so much weight. I then had my daughter at 6 mos. She only weighed 1lb an 6oz. , and the rest was me. Oh my God! I couldn't believe I was this big. Shortly after having my daughter I started excercising and dieting. I lost a lot of weight but eventually gained it back plus more. I've been struggling with my weight ever since gaining and losing(mostly gaining). I just recently learned a little information about lap band surgery through a classmate who went through it. I definately would like to know more about weight loss surgery, and this is why i'm on here today. I was thinking i might meet people that have experienced it first hand and would be kind enough to share.
