2Nd Fill


After having the band for almost a year, I'm finally scheduled to get a second fill. I will get my 2nd fill and hopefully the fill will help me lose more weight. I hit a plateau and it seems like i broke it but i lose and gain 2-3 lbs. Hopefully the second fill helps me out.

Getting some strange looks from folks after they found out that I was having lap-band surgery... Just because I'm not 300lbs over weight... does't mean that I am not OVER-WEIGHT... just had to vent for a minute... back to work...Remembering that this time is all about Me and My health...not the opinions of others...

Even if it was one or two bad choices, I felt...

My Surgery 5-22-12


I'm super excited to say the least. I'm so happy to be getting my surgery and get my confidence back.
