, I too, live in Alabama, southern born and southern bred! You will be

so pleased and happy to know that the MGB will absolutely change your life

forever, especially given the fact of your previous history of obesity since

childhood. Bless your heart. I can certainly understand how it must have

felt, as a child, to be tormented.

As for myself, I didn't begin getting tormented untiI I actually lost control

of my weight, beginning ten years ago. Although I had always had the

tendency to gain weight, my mother kept a handle on that as I was growing up

and literally drilled into me that she didn't want me fat and I didn't want

me fat either! Even my two pregnancies of gaining 75 lbs. each time and

having 10 lb. babies, I always managed to get right back down to my normal

weight of 135. My height and weight before my is almost identical to yours,

however I am 40 yrs. old, only wishing I were 28 again. O.K., I'm bragging

now, but I'm so proud of my weight loss of 25 lbs in exactly three weeks

today that I had surgery. Already, my energy level has increased, my

sleeping patterns and Depression have dramatically decreased, and a new zest

for living is within me. I actually look forward to getting out of the bed

now.

Good luck to ya. If I can be of more help in your inquiries, please don't

hesitate to e-mail me at dcwillinham@...

Really now, we're only one hour away from one another. We'll have to get

together to do lunch sometime you hear?

Good Luck!
