I'm married (2nd marriage) but no kids yet. It hasn't really been my weight stopping me, but my life...career, my first marriage ending, meeting my hubby at the time that I did in relation to my career. Now I have to finish anesthesia school before I can try to be a mom. By then, I should be at my goal weight and able to keep pregnancy weight gain to the recommended level...provided I can get pregnant by then. We'll see! Balancing career and wanting to have a family has been tough.

| Here's to a healthier, happier, slimmer 2008!!!
Hi everyone
I am 38 - well 39 next month and I live in Ipswich - Australia. This year is it for me!! No more putting it off!! I was banded in 2005 and lost 20 kilos and everything was going well until the 3rd fill which was too tight. I wasn't able to eat much and I think my metabolism slowed right down and I had some taken out which was ok at first but most of the weight came back on - but now the band is too loose. I was disapointed and upset and I stopped going to the gym and thought "what the hell" but I have realised that I did not do this to simply give up as soon as I hit a bump in the road so I am going back this week to have more in and to try again with a new attitude!!
:help: :whoo:
from this 2007 to this 2008

I am 34 y/o with two teenage daughters (had one at 19, one at 21) banded in sept and have lost 47 lbs. I was just married (2nd times the charm) one year ago -live near Seattle, Wa- realized that everything in my life is falling in place but that my weight had gotten way out of control and I had to take back the control or I would never be completely happy so here I am. Nice to see everyone.

Seriously involved with someone, however.

I'm Crystal and I'm from the D/FW, TX area!
I'm 34 years old and I'm pursuing this LAP-BAND® so I'll quit knocking shit off people's desks with my big arse. Also, so I can fit in a movie seat comfortably, but most importantly I don't have any kiddo's and want to have one. Me and my husband got pregnant in 11/05, but I had a miscarriage and lost the baby. I'm guessing it was because of my weight, though I've had friends that were 300 + deliver healthy babies, but I guess my body wasn't ready (I was like 260 then). Anyway... I'll find out in the next month if I get approved. All my stuff is done and now it's just the waiting game!!

coolcrystal
There are two amazing folks from your area on bycyling (yes, I know it's spelled wrong) forum. Stephanie and Brandon. They aren't a couple, it's just a small world.
You should check them outs. Stephanie is so motivational and Brandon is a super nice guy.

City: Sunnyvale State: CA | HI Everyone
My name is Tawnya, I am 30 years old no husband or kids, just a very active and cute Jack Russell!!! I am in the research stage of LAP-BAND®. I am set on getting it I'm just researching doctors in MX because I am self pay. Apparently I'm not fat enough for my insurance!!
I live in the bay area ca, there are lots of great doctors out here just expensive. I have been up and down my whole adult life. I am at my highest now which is 230. my goal is 150. although I have never been that thin, I can't wait to see what I look like. Nice to meet everyone!!
