I certainly do not regret getting the LAP-BAND®.

My sugars was over 300, When I started looking at the LAP-BAND® after years of losing weight and gaining ten to twenty pounds more I found myself at at a weight of over 317 (317 was my highest recorded weight do not know how much over 317 I actually went) I had to use a CPAP machine. I had pain all over my body.

Know even though for the last two months my weight has been stable I have lost over a 100 lbs. I am no longer am diabetic. I no longer use a CPAP machine. my joints do not hurt.

I have tons more energy and my waist has gone from 46 to 40 inches.
