Are there serious risk in the lap band surgery?
Going into memopause I had gained approximately 80 pounds. despite many attempts to exercise and diet which I would loose about 20/25 pounds then gain back 30. with in a 5 year period. Last year I had a hystorectomy and have gained approximately another 35/40 pounds and I am embarrased, depressed, can not sleep and developed a snoring problem as well as gasy pains in my stomache. This is taking a toll on my marriage despite my husbands warmth and support, but he deserves the woman he married. Realistically I don’t want to look twenty but I would like to look the best I can for my age. Because I have been so depressed my husband has purchased cruise tickets and I don’t want to be the "Fat Lady" around the pool. I know there are risk in any surgery, but living in this body I don’t feel alive and am willing to take any risk to look normal. I have always weighed around 125 minimum and 140 maximum. And I a now 241 and afraid of the heatlth factors.
