New to posting here!
So Ive been dealing with several different doctors who kept giving me the run around on the lapband procedure and after about 2 1/2 years of struggling, I have a surgery date. February 11th, 2011. I couldnt be happier. I am a 20 year old mother of a 4 year old. I currently weigh about 275-280. And I have a lot of health problems. I am looking for some people to talk to and possibly help me cope while going through this journey. Im definitely ready for a new life and a new lifestyle. And most of all, I owe it to myself and to my daughter to be healthy again!
Welcome...feel free to ask me any questions. I would be glad tp try and help you through this process.
