So going to lay it down for you:
I was 33 yrs old and weighed 398lbs. Yep I was 2lbs shy of 400.
I had PCOS (Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome), sleep apnea, bad back, bad knees and just all round bad.
I decided for the something different. WLS - Weight Loss Surgery. I decided I didn't want the bypass, too many bad things could happen. Ah but the Lap Band - is reversible, and haven't heard as many bad things. After several visits with the psychologist (yes several!), dietitian, and the doctor I was approved for Lap Band Surgery. My surgery took place on July 5th 2005. Now you are thinking hey at least you really got to enjoy one last 4th yeah no I was on a liquid diet for 2 days before surgery....it sucked!
Had the surgery, everything went great! Before I knew it I was losing the weight. Shane had the same surgery shortly after I did.
I lost 89 lbs in 2 yrs. I was ecstatic! It was working! I was feeling better, looking better doing more.....FEELING GREAT! Other then the pesky ciggies, I was doing great!
