Once I hit 30, in 2.5 years I gained over 120 pounds and my health declined.   I  used to be vibrant and able to keep up with my kids.  Now it is nearly impossible with that catch 22- I need to excercise but can't because of the arthritis pain in my knees.  When speaking to my doctor, she recommended the lapband.  I checked into it but found that my insurance wouldn't cover it.  I really couldn't afford the procedure.  Years later, after several of my friends and co-workers had the procedure, I am looking into it again.  They have had such good results that I am seriously considering the procedure.  This time, I want to try to have the procedure done in India.  I need major dental work (which my insurance doesn't cover); therefore, I am hoping that I can get the lapband procedure, my dental work, and the travel to India for the same price I would be charged just for the lapband here in the United States.  So, if everything works out right, this is the beginning of an adventure I'll remember for the rest of my life!
