I decided to have Lap Band surgery after I started having a lot of joint pain. I am pretty young and did not want to continue to deal with pain for the rest of my life. After a month, my hip pain went away and I can tell an overall difference in my pain level. I have also gone from taking 100 mg of blood pressure medicine to 1/2 of 25 mg pill each day. Healthwise, Lap Band has been great so far. I have lost a total of 20 pounds. I thought it would have been more by now, but I have decided to stay away from the scale until doctor's appointments to avoid getting frustrated. I have been hungry almost all the time! I have not had a fill yet though.  I will post some pictures later.
