  1. I am torn between band or sleeve. They both have pro's and con's. What made you chose band?
  2. I sent you an email. Thank you for responding. I would love to get to know you and hear about your experience.
  3. Hi, I am 31, a married mother of 3. I am seriously considering lap band. I have been fat since I was about 13. I need to lose 120 pounds. I have lost and gained for the past decade. My insurance will not pay (BCBS Arkansas/wal-mart) It will cost me 11,500 to get this done in Utah. I am scared to go into that much debt and then fail again. I know two women who have had it done. One looks great and is happier then ever. The other has only lost about 40 pounds in 9 months. I am just trying to make the right choice for me and my family. Anyone have any advice, regrets?
