  1. thank you. good reason to start to give it up now. that way I will not be tempted if I get this proceedure.
  2. I have to do a pre op diet of 6 months with my insurance too. Why? Is it to proove something? If I do really good and say loose 30 lbs then I dont need the surgery or or if I do really good then I am disciplined enough for the surgery?
  3. I am currently in the information gathering stage about Lap Band. What is the purpose of the pre-op diet? I have read in the posts something about the liver. Please elaborate...
  4. I have reciently decided to explore the option of Lap Band in helping me loose over 100 lbs. I have an orientation seminar next month. I have met people who have gone through bypass surgery, they state that you cannot have carbonation. Stating it "stretches" your stomach. If I have Lap Band, will I ever be able to enjoy another beer? Will I have to give up my addiction to diet soda? I love caffeine and need it quite often. Can I drink my morning coffee? Help. I am trying to cut down on the caffeine intake now to see if it is possible to give it up forever.
