I am 47 years old, mother of 3 children and work full time as a business consultant.  Most of the time I manged to keep my weight below 160 lb. In the last 10 years I have gained 50-60 lb.I have tried every diet and program available in the market and every time I loose to regain more pounds. I have been thinking of having a lap band surgery for over 4 years. I have attended severalseminars and finally decided to do it. The surgery went well but my challenge now is that I don't feel any restriction and I am still struggling with my weight because I feel hungry all the time. I had my surgery on Oct 21 and I have lost only 2 lb.
