Should LapBandTalk have forums for OTHER Weight Loss Surgeries?

[Jesusislove 26]

I have not read all the comments, but I do think that we should be able to talk about other WLS, because it can help someone make a critical decision.

We decided to launch seperate sister sites/forums for other weight loss surgeries as well as sites for other topics that aren't directly related to Lap-Band surgery.

Our first site is Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG) Surgery Forum .

Over the next week or two we plan on launching a few more.

Thanks!

Just to give you an idea on the sites we're launching:

1) Realize Band Forum

2) RNY Forum

3) WLS Revision Forum

4) Plastic Surgery Forum

5) Recipe Forum

6) Duodenal Switch Forum

7) One Main Site which will pull content from all sites together

I've found that having one web site serving the needs of multiple communities isn't the greatest idea. That's one of the main reasons we're going to keep LBT focused on one thing - Lap-Band and only Lap-Band.

Stay tuned......

We're happy to announce the beta launch of RNYTalk.com ! RNYTalk is the premier community for individuals who have undergone and who are now researching Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass weight loss surgery.

Be one of the first to post.....

I vote no but they should have there own site to go to.

I say no because te same owners tat created this site have similar ones for surgeries you are talking about ( gastric sleeve etc)

We decided to create sister communities for other weight loss surgeries. We started with VerticalSleeveTalk.com for Gastric Sleeve Surgery in 2007. We recently launched, RNYTalk.com for gastric Bypass Surgery and SleevePlicationTalk.com for Gastric Sleeve Plication Surgery.
