Hey everyone~ I have been committed to losing weight since I was 12 years old, and I have been failing at it since I was 12 years old. I have made the decision that I want the lapband surgery but, I almost feel like I'm failing again! I feel like I should have been able to do this on my own.... I dont know how I am going to explain this to my family and get their full support when I am beating myself up over it. I am 99.9% sure this is the only way I can not be a 24 year old girl who weighs over 300 lbs. Any thoughts?

(Wow Libby goodluck tomorrow.) All these responses are helping me feel slightly braver... You guys are amazing :-)
