Hi, I just got word that my insurance approved the lap band.  I am so excited and very nervous.  I'm 46 and have been obese for 20 years.  I have lost weight so many times but have failed to keep it off.  I understand that the lap band is not a quick cure and have done a great deal of research.  I have been in therapy for 3 years for my emotional eating and food addiction.  I spent 25 years as a thin woman, 20 years as a fat woman and I am ready to go back to my roots.  I want to feel good about myself again.  I welcome any words of wisdom!Tessierose
