I have had a weight problem since my teenage years. I have gained and lost 50 to 70 lbs every ten years and then slowly but surely put it all back on. usually I have gone on liquid diets. I can no longer do that. I have to take the weight off and keep it off. My body can't take anymore yo yoing. I looked at all the options and decided lapband made the most sense. This is the begininng of my story I have been to a seminar, I have done the paperwork, I am fortunate to have insurance that pays for the operation, and follow-up. I hope to have my Dr. appt later this month, and the pre-op phase begin.
