Anyone like me?

I'm going to a seminar this weekend for the lap band. My fear is that i will not have enough health issues to qualify. Although I'm blessed to not have major health issues, it is only a matter of time. My weight just keeps gong up and up and up. I've gained 14-16 pounds in 1 month. I don't know what the heck is going on. I've had my thyroid checked and was told oh it's fine. I've always struggled with my weight up and down, it wasn't until my daughter who is 3 that I just could not stay below 200. So my true question I guess is? Will a doctor or a insurance co. mine is Anthem Bluecross PPO HRA approve me based on my BMI of 37-38. I have noticed that I started to snore just recently and my knees hurt when I walk up stairs or do exercise. Is this weight related or age? I'm 34. Any advise anyone?
