    New to this site

    Hi: I am planning on having lap band at the end of May/beginning of June. I went on this site today for the first time and I haven't seen too many happy people and now I am beginning to doubt myself. Can anyone with a good experience please write about it so I won't change my mind??? Thanks.....

    Lap Band Surgery

    Hi: I am going through my tests and evaluations and decided to come here to see what everyone was talking about. The more I read, the more discouraged I get. I hear a lot of negatives. Can anyone post something positive about getting the lap band so I don't chicken out and not get it???? thanks

    smoking

    I am having preop testing next week and have just quit smoking as they will not do surgery if you have nicotine in your blood. Anyone have this problem of having to quit and how long does it take to get out of your blood??

    smoking

    Hi: I am having my preop tests next week for gastric banding. They will not do surgery on me unless I stop smoking. I quit last week (its been rough but I'm doing it). Does anyone know how low you have to stop smoking before it doesn't show in your blood work?? Has anyone had to quit smoking and how have they handled it?? Thanks
  6. lmao...i haven't had the surgery yet (lap band) but I know enough to say that the doctor sounds like a "quack"....
  7. Hi Amanda: Did you have your surgery and how did it go?? I know it has only been a couple of days but would you go through it again ????
