umystifyme's Story  
I began to gain weight in my early twenties.  I became my heaviest last fall and hit my peak in March 2009 at 285 lbs.  I was having heart problems and knew I had to do something.  I've researched the lap-band procedure for 3 years so I was prepared to take that step.  Five months later and 80 lbs lighter, I am getting ready to set up my surgery.
