I've been investigating the lapband procedure for quite some time. My cousin had it done a few years ago and lost a ton of weight.  I was almost convince then.Once I developed diabetes and hypertension a couple of years ago, and learned that bariatirc surgery could "cure" these conditions, I really started looking into the procedure.I decided to go for the band, because, it was a lot less riskier than the bypass.  I've never been slim, so I don't know how I'm going to deal with the weighloss.  I just hope this works!
