Lose weight before getting/trying to get pregnant????????

I have been TTC for about 5 months now. I already have 1 DD. Last time, it took us about 3 months to get pregnant. I know 5 months isn't that long (I'm 36 now) but this time, I am about 30 pounds heavier than I was when I got pregnant with DD. I am overweight to begin with. I gained 80 pounds last time and lost about 50. So this puts me 30 pounds heavier than I was (when I was already overweight last time).
The unique situation is that I had lap band in 2006, so I still have the ability to go back to my Doc to get it adjusted. If I went, I could probably lose about 15-20 pounds in a few weeks. I just feel like I don't want to lose weight and if I got pregnant, gain it back again. But What if I don't get pregnant again? What if it takes me 5 more months? This is where I am stuck.......

AF is due this Friday or Sat (5/20) so I guess I'm not out yet, but got BFN on 11 DPO and 12 DPO.

Any advise??
