Well, I'm pre-surgery right now so not much to tell. I'm 57yrs old and a retired police officer of 34 years. Through out my life I have tried all types of diets but have not be successful as my human factor (weakness) has taken over. I have always been against any type of elective surgery. My daughter had the Lap Band put on a year ago and has lost over 100 pounds. Watching her over the last year has made me a believer and now I'm going to go for it. I have hypertension and type II diabetes so I'm looking forward to a total life style change and hoping to take back my health while I still can. I will write more later down the road as I go through this process. Thanks, Yumacop
