It's simple, my fatness. I become bigger and bigger day by day and I simply can't stop. The problem is probably due to my (well known) lazyness and my stressful life. I use to be a very nervous person in real life and I'm no more able to follow a diet constantly: a little problem sooner or later will change my mood and I'll simply break the diet. I'm relatively young but I fear a lot for my health. When I went to the doctor, he said that my hearth has started to have problems and my respiration too. My back hurts every day because of my (increasing) weight and I'm having a lot of other problems: for example I'm constantly tired. Lurking the net I found an italian forum for fat people and I read about the labaroscopic obesity surgery. A lot of the people there talked about Doctor Bottani (the link I put in my last post about the argument show him) and his equipe, so I went to him for a visit two weeks ago. He suggested me a "gastric band" and I'll go to his hospital the next week. You can learn about what is a gastric band here: http://www.obesitylapbandsurgery.com/index.html What I've to say about this operation is that I'm very happy and motivated, I've no more taste in eating: I simply open the fridge and empty it out :sick: :sick: :sick: , with this gastric band I can't do it anymore... Don't worry about the cost of the operation, we have the public assistance here and I'll pay nothing :bigrinnin: :bigrinnin: :bigrinnin: (one of the few good reasons to live here :whistle: )... ----------------------------------- Hawktoey Thursday, 30 September 2004, 01:01 AM ----------------------------------- My uncle was in same situation. He had what we call stomach stapling. It makes your stomach very very small. He had to eat blended/creamed foods for awhile. He was over 450 lbs. (only he knew what his wieght was, we only guessed) and is now close to 190 lbs a year later. His health improved but he waited to long and is now waiting to get knee surgery to both of his knees, as the strain on them has damaged them. Best of luck to you! And best wishes for a speedy recovery. ----------------------------------- JanReinar Thursday, 30 September 2004, 03:31 AM ----------------------------------- My brother has also problems with obesity and one time he told me about this type of surgery but he never go to the table! :pale: Good luck my friend!

Davide you have had a very special place in our hearts here. We along the way have gotton to know and be good friends. Posy for the extra that nobody has on there sites. People that don't just post, they talk as if they pass by your house and say hi. I have and might not ever see another like this site. The new ones don't have to be shy they can just talk and be apart of this family. Anyone is always welcome. So Davide just remember when you see that glow off the monitor at night when you turn out the light. Thats all of us shining for you. Best wishes Davide and everything will be alright.
