I'm 48, have always been overweight, but for the most of my life I was athletically involved in various sports, rugby, soccer, softball, basketball, etc... Over the last few years my life style has slowed down and my weight has steadily increased. I've tried dieting many many times throughout the years with the same results each time, lose 10 to 12 pounds-stall-get frustrated-put the weight back on. I'm in the first stages of researching (hence joining this forum) lap band surgery as my next big step to end the continuous cycle of frustration. I've inquired and received info about having the procedure done out of Juarvez, Mexico. I appreciate any input or advice concerning lap band surgery in general and especially any experiences done in Juarvez. Thank you.
