My name is Crystal and I'm 31. I have been struggling for 14 years with my weight. I have decided to get a lap band and I'm gonig through the motions to get that done. I got on here to hear what real people who have had the procedure are saying about how they are coping with life. I've not been swayed yet. I need help and I'm gonna go get it :0) I was wondering if anyone out there who had a decent experience so far with the lap band would mind keeping in touch with me and to be willing to answer questions I can't seem to get an answer on-line to.
