I have been overweight since i was 15yo. my weight has always been a problem and has progressively got worse as i got older with stress and life in general. food was my "feel good" drug, and i would eat when i felt most depressed which was at night. I chose Lap-Band because i wanted something that would push me to make the right eating choices. i have had multiple health issues and family history of high blood pressure and cholesterol, which i hope never catches up with now that i have the Lap-Band.
