Welcome,
My name is Mandy. I am in my early 30's, I am married and have 3 beautiful children; Hannah, Natasha, and Joshua.
I have struggled with my weight since I became pregnant with my daughter Hannah. I was recently at my highest weight of 315ish...
At that point I looked into having Weight Loss Surgery and did everything I needed to do; including Quit Smoking (4/8/2010) and getting some weight off before surgery. I had Weight Loss Surgery 12/6/2010 (Realize Band - LapBand). I was extremely successful with losing weight and my Dr. and his team was pleased.
On 4/25/2011 I had to have my Band removed due to infection. At this point I come to realize I can not "give up"!!! I must move forward on my Weight Loss Journey and stay focused with my EYE ON THE PRIZE!
However, after many bumps in the road and gaining all I had lost and much more, I have been given a 2nd chance. I had gastric bypass surgery on 1/16/2014 and I am hoping this time around is a sure thing!
Follow me on my journey as I try to reach my Goals!
~Mandy
