I decided about 2 years ago to check into Lap band. After numerous attempts to lose weight and always failing I felt this was my only option. I started calling around getting information in March 2008 and finally found Dr. Fedorak in Colorado springs in July. I told him I didn't want the health issues my mom had and want to live a healthy life. my insurance approved me for surgery in September and I had my surgery in October. All went well. I don't regret anything.
