They are great, but they will push for the lap band. They try to scare you with you lose your stomach, you could gain back weight etc., but you can gain weight back with any WLS if you don't put in work! I went for the surgery that yielded more instant results, less gaging and vomiting, long term it won't have me restriction from certain foods, no long term device as I am 31, and it would be in me a long time!!!, also payments for fills every month for a year...between 150-300$ depending on your insurance! Plus I have Dr. Rilley who is personable and highly recommended. He did my EGD today...very easy procedure to test for haital hernia, ulcers etc. Before he does my sleeve, as it is a requirement... Join me on my blog as I track my process... bandexpressions.WordPress.com I'm putting EGD pics up today!
