I am waiting for insurance approval, and several doctors recommended the lap band over the by pass. However last week I went to see an oconlogist and she said she never met anyone who was successful with the lapband. This leaves me concerned. Reading the blog has me more conerned. Your thoughts?

Congrats on the weight loss! I am several months away fom surgery, and a bit nervous. Thanks for sharing your experience, helps keep me focused.

Good Luck Newbie!!! I am very nervous about surgery, though I am months away from mine.( I need to complete a 6 month documented diet program to meet insurance critera).
