    AGO posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    I don't have a date for my surgery. I'm researching into lap band. My husband had gastric bypass in December last year and he's doing very well with it. I don't know if I want to go that route though, the idea of them cutting my stomach makes me nervous. The lap band sounds as though it is easier to recover from for the surgery part of it. I have some questions.... what is sliming, PB, what is this "stuck" feeling that I'm reading about? Why did you go with lap band versus gastric bypass?
