, I decided on the lap band because within the past 3-4 years i have gained so much weight that i now have been diagnosed with diabetes ( i also have PCOS).  I cannot seem to lose the weight on my own after so many attempts. I had my surgery on 10/11/10.  I've been home since being discharged from the hospital stay.  I am currently experiencing painful gas and swelling in my tummy.  Nothing unbearable just so tired of beng uncomfortable, which at times has made me ask myself the question..."what did i do to myself?"  I am down about 10 pounds but so miserable these days!
