  2. Hello, This is my first interaction/post to this forum (even though i've been watching from afar for awhile). This also may be more of a thoughts/opinion thing rather than a question but here goes. I started out with wanting the LAP-BAND surgery around january of this year, so i sent up the appointment for the siminar at my nearest weight specialist. After receiving the info from the presenter, i was basically told that with the amount of weight i need to lose lap-band is not an option. so after reading up on the other options i choose to pursue this. i was set up with a appointment two months later to be told that i was to big to get the operation due to the way i carried my weight. He said i would have to lose at least 80 pounds. He set me up with the nutritionist and we started. its been two months now since i started and i have lost 30 pounds. Went back today to a follow-up and now they wanna speed it up saying that "if i keep it up i should be ready in two months. Fear is kinda setting in now due what i was told by him about if i don't lose the weight i wont make it" now he is saying 60 pounds should do..... what do you think ps. i also have in my head that if i keep this up i dont need his way?????the surgury... Am i the only one who thought t
