Lap band

I think I'd have to try the lap band before I would have bypass surgery. If I could find a diet pill that works, that didn't have crazy side effects I'd go that route! I get frustrated with my body and I'm critical of how I look. I don't have others call me fat, but I know that I am! I know that I don't eat healthy, and I eat to much to often- thus the weight gain. I have yo-yo diets that work for a season and once I quit the weight comes right back on. So what have you tried that works? Not to just help you lose the weight but to keep it off too?
