  1. I have a question. I have submitted my paperwork and am going to talk to the surgeon this week about the lap band but as I read the comments I would like to ask all of you a question. I have NO doubt that everyone on here has been on a million "diets", what is it about this procedure that makes it work for you. Trust me I understand this is not a miracle cure but how is lap band any diferent than any other diet plan.....I am trying to understand that piece of it. Can you guys help me understand? Will it/does it keep you in check? Does it make you uncomfortable so you can't eat? Does it take away your hunger? Thank you.
