  1. Hi, I just turned 25 and am sick and tired of being overweight (all my life, joined weight watchers seven times already and it's just not working) so I'm starting to research the lap band surgery. I have an appointment with a surgeon in a month but am scared he will just say positive things so I will get it done. I would soooo appreciate someone sharing their experience with me (the good, the bad, the ugly, everything). I'm feeling like this is my chance to get my life under control a little but at the same time am super scared. Has anyone gotten it reversed? Does it effect your chances of getting pregnant (if I wanted to down the line)? What is it like? Did it hurt? ok well any help would be 100% appreciated - Elle : )
