I was diagnosed with Diabeties last July 06. My weight was a huge part of the problem. I was 265 and the oral meds were not working any more. I was about to have to go on insulin. I had lost 84 lbs 3 years ago with atkins. I knew I could loose it but keeping it off was a life and death factor for me. My moms health history is horrible as well and I seen my self following right down her path. So I elected to start researching Lap band this was 3 years ago after I started putting the weight back on. Well I made my choice and I was banded May 14th 07. I know some people will say I cheated, the band is really just a tool however I plan to use it! And Yes I cheated! Death that is... SO NOW FOR THE FUN STUFF.. I have been married 20 years as of Aug 28 07, we married when i was 16. I knew the day I laid my eyes on him he was the one! We have 6 children 2 of them are 2 legged and the other 4 have 4 legs.. My daughter is 19 and in college my son is 16 and going into the 11th. I was truly blessed with these two. The other 4 children lay around all day and do nothing( WHAT A LIFE)well on a good day chase down a bone or a ball.
