I have been overweight since high school.  My family wants me to be healthy.  Before my mom passed away in March 2010, her one request was that I lose the weight.  I struggled for years trying to lose the weight, but never getting anywhere.After a lot of research, I have decided to get the band (Realize or LapBand), still undecided on which one.  Surgeon uses both and likes different things about each of them.  My choice.I have cleared all the medical requirements, have to meet with the nutrionist next week, hoping to get the final approval and get scheduled for October surgery.
