I got my approval for lap-band surgery it is August 1st. I am nervous and excited. I have struggled with my weight all of my adult life. I was always active and then I started to put the pounds on. I tried all the diets and nothing worked. A couple of years ago I was told I have PCOS and my doctor claims that is why I am struggling with my weight loss. So I looked into lap band and thought this is my only hope.
