My decision to have a lap-band done is based on my history of loosing weight and then seeing it return. I've done it 5 times in my life. I am very good at following a strict diet and loosing weight, I just can't keep it off. I view the the lap-band as providing a more permanent solution. I recognize that I could fail; that all the weight could return. But I think the possibility is less because it will act as a conscious constantly whispering in my ear, 'that's enough'.
