    Yes, I wish I could have done it sooner, much sooner. Better late than ever, though. My state (state employee) just decided to try insuring WLS. So glad they did, I could not have paid for all of it on my own, the co-pay was stiff enough.

    I totally would! I love my lapband! I had surgery May 25, 2010 and down 63 lbs with 38 to go to goal. I am so much healthier and confident about myself. I am doing more things with my kids. My depression is so much better and I am not obsessing about food. I pray every day that I will always have this wonderful band.

    Even though I haven't lost very much, I was gaining 20lb/yr. I'm really glad that it helped me turn it around.
