Hello everyone here is my Intro!
 

Hi everyone I am Lunaoro. I am here because I need a support group while I try to lose some weight. I am 28 years old and I am five foot tall. Seven years ago I was a size 12/14 and weighed 140lbs. During my (only) pregnancy I got preeclampsia and ballooned up to 199. After the birth of my child I went down to 175lbs. I am now 215 lbs, a size 20, with a BMI of 41. I am not sure what my recommended BMI is but I do know that the doctors want me to be between 105-124lbs. My husband is very worried about my health. Although he loves me the way I am. He and I are both worried about me getting diabetes, heart disease, etc. He wants me to get the Lap Band because he knows how much I have struggled with my weight. So that is why I am trying harder than ever to lose the weight or prove that it is near impossible. If I lose it on my own better for me. If not then I can show that I have tried and see if I qualify for the Lap Band. I think that is everything in a nutshell. Although I could go on with my story I will not bore you with it. Unless you are really all that curious! :wave:
