    Hi, I'm Juliana. I live on Fairchild Air Force Base in Washington. I talked to my PCM today about the lap band. He is doing several blood tests on me in the morning. From there, he will write me a referral and then I can go see the surgeon. I am somewhat nervous and hope that I am able to go through with this. I weigh 220 pounds and am 5'6" leaving me with a BMI of 36. I got pregnant at 16 and gained 60 pounds. After I had my son, I was never able to lose the weight and then packed on more. I have a major thyroid problem and it is very hard to lose weight once it's been gained. Glad I found this website.
