I have just recently started looking into the lap-band. I am wondering about the recovery period. How long afterwards did most of you stay out of work? I have school and work during the week and weekends and I am wondering how much I will be able to handle? I am curious about the pre-diet and the post-diet...is definatly worth it to change your eating and drinking habits? Especially those you are socialites. I do enjoy going out to eat and occasionaly drinking. I definatly want to lose weight and believe this is the right choice for me, I just want to know if I will feel like I am missing out on things that others will be able to enjoy? Like going out to dinner... Is there anyone who had a great surgery, anyone who had an extremely difficult one? Any answers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
