trying to decide but inclined to do it

After 45 years of fighting my weight and losing, I'm feeling inclined to try the lap band. (And, it may be the yo-yo dieting that got me up to my current 300.)

For right now, I'll be reading about other people's success and problems.

I'm 58 with type II diabetes. I exercise (irregularly due to foot/leg strains [wonder why]) frequently enough that I'm in pretty good condition for my weight.

Right now, I find I'm revisiting my favorite bad foods and meals for the last time in the expectation my future bites of these things will be fewer and small.

Welcome and good luck!

Welcome. The Best advise I can give you is to do your research. Then do what is right for you. There is also a gastric sleeve. There is a thread on here about it also. But check out all the WLS. Good luck in what ever you decide to do.
