I knew I needed to lose weight for my health and my children so I made the 1st appointment, followed the steps, attended the support groups and had my surgery. First month was the hardest but once past that I've had very little trouble accepting what I can and can't eat. I'm losing weight and half way to my goal. My biggest challenge is making myself exercise. I would do this all over again in a heartbeat and recommend lapband to anyone with weight issues.
