I'm pre-surgery, but in the insurance phase (about half-way through the 6 months required by my insurance carrier).  I've been struggling with my weight for close to 20 years now.  That's half my life!  So hard to believe...Still trying to decide if the band is for me... though I've almost determined it's the way I'm going to go.  Hoping to glean info from the community!
