My triglycerides were up around 600. I was 41 years old, weighed 227 pounds, and knew I had to lose weight or I was going to die. I lost four pounds the first week after my LAP-BAND surgery, and I averaged two pounds per week after that until I reached—and then passed—my goal weight! I feel so much happier!
