Thanks for the support guys

I know it's what I want...and need to do. I just have to get past the fear. I know in the long run I will be better for it. I think the banding is the only procedure I'd consider from the reading I've done, but I know there is great success in all methods of weight loss surgery. My husbands friends wife had it done, and had complications of surgery, I think that is what has scared me, but she has lost 50% of her body fat in 12 months. Would age affect the complications and recovery from such surgeries?
