I hope this topic hasn't been addressed a million times. I am so sick of being overweight. I have not been successful with any weight loss program. I've tried Weight Watchers, sensible calorie control with exercise, appetite suppressants, everything. Nothing works. I have a BMI of 32. I think this means I will not qualify for a lap band. I also have high blood pressure. I hope to go see a doctor at Northstar Medical Specialties in Bellingham, Wa. I will keep reading these informational forums.
