  1. There is a MD in my area that does outpatient lap bands. I've been told that saves some money. I'm going to try to ask for a cash discount. We'll see. I have my MD referral and my first appointment is next week.
  2. What is a "sleeve"? I am still learning the lingo! ssdown
  3. I've read that quite a few of you have really struggled with loosing weight with the lap band. Many of you have not been able to get the the "sweet spot" even after the bands are completely filled. :cry I'm not banded yet, but am worried that I will have the same poor experiences. Any suggestions to help me prepare for success?
