I am in the process of being approved for lap-band. I go for my pre surgical work up on 6/12.I have hypertension, sleep apnea, and aches in knees and hips, which is likely due to carrying all this fat around for the past 30 years. I have lost weight numerous times, only to gain it back...I have been a weight watchers life member (lost 80 pounds) since the early 80,s. Weight watchers is a great program but I always seem to gain it back. I have a tendancy to be a "stress eater" and this has me a little concerned that this may not be for me, but I plan on following through unless I find some realy good reason not to. I have also lost almost 100 pound on Fen-Fen. No, I had no Ill affects, and found it a great way to lose weight. On Fen-Fen I had to actually remind myself to eat as I was never hungry on it. The weight just pealed off. However when it was pulled from the market it was only a year or so and there I was back to the "Big Dog". clothes again.
