I am Angela! I am in the research/information giving stage of this process. I was referred to a surgeon and they are sending out a packet for me to fill out to see if I qualify for the Lap Band. I am very hopeful that I will because I have struggled with weight loss for the last 12 years. I have yo-yo'ed for way too long and I can't keep doing this to myself. I lose weight and feel elated and then it sneaks it's way back up and I am depressed.

I hope that I can join the ranks of the successful soon so that I can finally feel confident and healthy again!

Thanks!
