Hi, This has been a very long and hard road. It was not an easy desicion to finally go with the lap-band. I have gone through the 6mn waiting period inorder to have the surgery, and am planning on having it done on April 29th. I am nervous, am I doing the right thing. I have tried every diet out there, and this seems to my last hope. My husband is having a hard time with me getting the surgery, he says he supports me, which I know he dose. He just dose not understand why I am doing it, he dose not see me has heavy. In way that is great because he loves me for who I am, but right now I am at my heavest 256, and I need to this for me. to be able to enjoy him and my kids. I feel like this will be a new begining for me. I have read so many great succes stories, and a couple of people I have talked to have not have good experience, but they are far and few in between. So in a way I guess I know I am doing the right thing.
