I have always struggled with my weight. Diet after diet I was always looking for a "fix". Little did I know all those diets were actually worsening the matter! When I hit 300 lbs. I spoke to my doctor and she advised the lapband. So far I am very pleased. It is definetely the best thing I have done for myself. Even though I have only lost about 40 lbs., I now have the tool to make it work! This is the first time I have EVER not gained back any weight after losing. I have full confidence that I WILL be successful. I just need to continue to use the tool that was given to me.
