I didn't have the lapband, but I did have gastric bypass when I was 22. So I know what it's like to be young and really want to get rid of the weight. It really is the best decision I've ever made. I was 275 pounds on surgery day and so unhealthy. High blood pressure, high cholesterol, severe acid reflux, no menstrual cycle, etc. Now all my health issues have gone away and I've been able to have children. There are complications with any surgery, but there are MANY more complications with living as a morbidly obese person. Good luck with your decision!
