Hi, I just joined this group. I am toying with the idea of having the lap band surgery but I am scaird sh*tless. I have been over weight since my hip surgery in 1994. And moving around is still hard. So the lap band is an option that appeals to me. Has anyone had it done? And if so could you tell me about it, well more than the little pamphlet they give you at your docs office. And good luck to all!!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I have had it. Unfortunately its a bit early to crow about results, you see I got mine in September on the 24th. If you have specific questions about the surgery etc I can be a help. Please feel free to ask any questions you like.
