Jaime B – LAP-BAND Surgery

I’m Jaime B! I have been married to my wonderful husband for 8 and half years, and I am a mommy to a 7 year old boy and a 7 month old little girl.

I had surgery on November 14, in 2014. At my heaviest weight of 325lbs, I was absolutely miserable. I couldn’t fit in a booth at restaurants, so  I ordered and ate in my car a lot. I was scared to sit on any furniture that wasn’t my own for fear of breaking it. I was scared to death to have another child after my son, and even though I was carrying on with my life…. I felt like was dying.

After the surgery, I got into the gym, and I really started devoting myself as much as I I could to losing the weight!  I even got some serious accountability help from my husband, my best friend, and even from my son. As I started losing more weight, I signed up for every public race within in a 50 mile radius, and even if I knew I wasn’t going to win, I was having fun running against myself!- each race trying to beat my last time! I cut the sugars, and I quit the sodas!

Now I have obtained a weight loss of 111lbs, and I am happier and healthier than I have ever been before. I have a beautiful healthy new baby, and thanks to the weight loss I had a WONDERFUL, healthy and active pregnancy. I can’t wait to see what the rest of this year hold for me and my family. Thank you, Dr. Bagnato!
