    Smoking And Lapband?

    I haven't been banded yet, but I did quit smoking just about 5 weeks ago. I tried everything over the past 15 years to quit and nothing lasted more than a few weeks. This time I tried the Blu electronic cigarette and it worked for me! It's been 39 days since I had a real cigarette and 14 days since I used the electronic one. Oh and they sell the Blu cigarette at Walgreens in a starter pack for $50. Just a suggestion

    Wt??

    I think part of the problem was not having the other surgeon, Dr. Coirin, there. I have researched the one who would perform the lap-band and he gets excellent reviews. He even gets excellent reviews on LapBandTalk. I just got a really unpleasant impression from his partner, Dr. Coates. I'm moving forward and setting my consultation with Dr. Coirin.

  5. Hello. My name is Nicole and I have my seminar on Wednesday. I am just beginning my journey and have so many questions. I guess the first of my questions would be what should I expect for the amount of time until I am scheduled for surgery? I am planning on having my insurance pay for the surgery, but haven't even begun that process yet... I would just really appreciate any input at all at as to what I should expect, not just about time...but everything
