My highest weight last summer was 328. High blood pressure, sleep apnea, knees and joints were killing me. I've been on any and all diets you've ever heard of. Been fighting wieght for 40 years. I'm now 50 pounds lighter this summer thanks to my decision to have the lap band. Surgery was June 1st 2010, and was the easiest surgery I've ever gone through, and I've had a lot of surgeries. My blood pressure is already in the normal zone without meds. One of my knees have quit hurting, but I'm still having pain in the other one, but I have great hope for it.
