My Story All my life I have been a very active person. I went to college to become a Physical Education teacher and taught for a few years. I was never thin, but always considered myself to be in good physical condition. But the older I got, the less I exercised. When my weight reached 330 pounds, I knew I needed to take more drastic measures. At that point, I was suffering from high blood pressure, sleep apnea, diabetes and osteoarthritis in both of my knees. I needed total knee replacements, but all of the surgeons that I consulted, would not even consider doing the surgery because of my weight. After doing some research, I discovered how invasive and risky gastric bypass was. Fortunately, I found information about the Lap-Band procedure and I knew right then that I wanted to have that surgery. I attended a free seminar and after hearing the presentation, I was sold on the idea. After finding out that my insurance would not pay for this procedure, I financed the cost of the surgery. After losing 50 pounds, I went back to one of the surgeons and he was amazed at my transformation. He agreed that I had lost enough weight to have knee replacement surgery. Besides, improving my overall health, I can now regain the mobility that I lost because my knees hurt so much when I walked. Having the Lap-Band surgery has given me back my life. And the confidence to know I can keep losing and living! |
