Hi,
I'm a 42 year old female. Mother of two daughters, married for almost 18 yrs, have 2 happy dogs and one 16 yr old cranky cat . Have had PCOS for 11 years and all sorts of other "fun" ailments that go along with that. Am currently researching the Lapband due to my BMI of 42.3.  EEEK, never thought I'd weigh 239 lbs at only 5'3", but I do and it sucks. Basically my body won't let go of any weight on its own, so I am looking to band to get down to a manageable weight that allows me to workout without such hip and back pain. Already met with my surgeon and do qualify, just waiting and stewing on the whole idea of my morbidity and if I really want to make this happen. Scared, excited, nervous and giddy all n the same breath.
