  1. I had the original, nonadjustable banding done. My husband's insurance does not cover weight loss surgery and the adjustable costs twice as much. The nonadjustable banding does carry the risk of pouch stretching. One of my friends had this problem. She would drink more than the four ounces of Fluid that you are allowed every hour and eventually she had problems. Good luck with your surgery on Thursday! Deb
  2. Hello, I'm Debbie from Houston and I had lap band surgery last Wednesday, July 30. I'm a registered nurse and I am hoping to describe from a more clinical viewpoint what is happening. My husband created a website for me to post my experiences with the surgery, hospitalization, and hopefully a large weight loss. My website is here.
