I'm Dani, I'm 23 and I'm seriously considering the lap band. I've been heavy all of my life and while I've lost the weight it seems each time its harder and harder. I go to the gym 3 days a week, watch my carb and calorie intake and still can't lose any weight. I have PCOS so i know that has some to do with it but I'm tired of being the big girl. My husband and I are going to a seminar about the lap band later next month because I agreed that we'd answer all of his questions before I made this huge step.
