SO i came out to California on a scholarship for soccer. 2 weeks before season i tore my acl and my mcl. I went in for surgery and when i came out i realized they had operated on the wrong knee. I was stuck with 2 bad knees and stuck in bed for a year. I then became depressed and having anxiety problems. I than began to work on myself after physical therapy but nothing was working. I hired a personal trainer, went to the gym everyday, i just couldn't get a jump start. Than i heard about the lap band. Yess it is a little extreme but nothing was working for me...I am excited that i have gone threw with it and we will see where it gets me. I had my surgery this past Friday so i am a new "lap band" owner.
