Hello, I am just starting the process and am considering the lapband. While doing my research I kept seeing this "lapbandtalk" forum as a great tool. So I thought I would check it out so I could read and hear from those who have started this journey. I didn't start stuggling with my weight until I was in my early twentys. After the freshmen collage 15 turned more like 50, my life of yo yo dieting was on the go. I would keep it off then regain, back and forth. Now in my early fortys I decided I needed to get back in control. I am overall very healthy, I have no medical issues and I am active! The weight hasnt been coming off as easy as it did when I was younger. So after talking with my Doctor, we agreed to start this process. So my jouney begins now.... First step,I am meeting with the nutrionist in a few days. I am embracing the journey to see where it leads me - a new healthier slimmer me!
