Hi.  As most people that I have read about here on OH, I have had a weight problem most of my life.  I did lose about 50 pounds in early 90's, but life happened and I ended up gaining it all back, plus a lot more.  

I have been thinking about this surgery off and on for a while.  I have a consult with a Doctor next week (on my birthday no less) and am attending a seminar by another doctor the following weekend (thought I would "comparison shop").  

I am only considering the lap band.  I want a less invasive surgery than gastric bypass and I like the idea of the adjustability of the band.  My insurance should cover a good portion of the procedure.
