Hi Sean, I just had the lap band done November 6. So far so good. I thought about it close to a year and after struggling with weight all my life except for about twenty years between age 24 and 44 (I'm 52 now with ten year old twins), I finally decided I needed to take drastic measures to get myself healthy. I still have food issues and see a therapist routinely to address my issues or else I'll be dead in the water. By the way, I'm a physician (although I am currently not practicing) and knew before I started the process what the deal was RE: complications, risks, outcomes, etc. I think you need to carefully evaluate what you're looking for from the surgery.
