Traditional Lap-Band surgery usually involves five small incisions into the abdominal cavity. Most of these are no more than one to two inches in length. These are used for placement of cameras and surgical equipment. If necessary, a larger incision may be made, up to five or more inches in some cases. This is rare, as it usually only happens during a complication or if the Lap-Band is being placed during another procedure, such as a tubal ligation or other surgery. Thanks

Dumping syndrome occurs when food enters the bloodstream too quickly. It is a common effect of gastric bypass surgery because the natural stomach outlet (pyloric valve) has been removed and food enters the small intestine more quickly. Gastric bypass patients commonly experience dumping syndrome after eating sweets or high-fat foods, eating too much food, or drinking fluids with meals. Think about it. Take more suggestions from your medical practitoner. Good luck with your decision. Cheers

The Band is made of silicone rubber, and cannot be rejected. Of course it can become infected and require removal, but this is not the same as being rejected like a transplanted organ. Most surgeons use antibiotics to prevent infection, but rarely, some patients may develop an infection around the port site.

The purpose of a pre-surgery diet is to reduce body fat around the stomach and liver, as well as shrink the liver itself. If the liver is too large, the surgery may have to be postponed.

Use your rest of days to follow pre-op diet.

Yes, some women maybe attracted to slightly chubby men, but most women are turned off sexually by overweight men. Most likely, she will think that you are lazy, is not bothered with your own health and that you are more than likely proned to obesity related diseases. If that is her perception, how do you think your chances will be if pitted against a healthy looking male counterpart for her attention? So if you want to attract women, the first thing to do is to start losing weight now.

That's great...Congratulations. Cheers

Wishing you all the best...Hope you recover very soon. Cheers! Thanks

When you've decided to have lap band surgery is the right choice for you and your weight loss goals, your Medical practitioner will put you on a fairly strict lap band pre-op diet to prepare your body for the surgery. Caloric Intake: a limited calorie intake of 800 to 1,200 calories per day liquid Diet: In the last week or two before surgery, you'll likely be asked to begin a liquid diet. Protein and Protein supplements: Protein will be an important part of your pre-op lap band surgery diet. In fact, you'll need to consume 70 to 120 grams of protein each day, as directed by your surgeon. Cheers!
