When a friend gently and awkwardly asked me if I thought I might do something about my weight because he was afraid of losing me, I was touched so deeply by love that realized I really needed to do something effective for my health.I simply woke up the next morning having decided to explore the Lap Band. After going to an orientation for all types of weightloss surgery, a support group for laplanders, and doing a ton of research online, I am pursuing getting banded.I will meet my surgeon on May 5, 2010 at 10am and will proceed from there.
