I have been overweight almost all of my life and after getting married realized that every aspect of my life was happy but me. I made the decision in early 2009 to get the lap band. On October 21st 2009 my lap band was placed. I am not going to lie about it, there are a lot of days that i regret getting the band, but then i realize its for all selfish reasons because all i want to do is eat things that aren't good for me. i had immediate success then feel off of the wagon when I found all of the tricks. I have recently made a promise to myself to get active and successful again. i welcome people to befriend me and we can support each other in this life-long struggle. Getting the band was not the "easy" way out, it only added to the journey.
