  1. HELP! Surgery is 3/13...

    JennyLee9881 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Hello, my name is Jennifer and I am new to this site. I am having banding surgery on 3/13/09 and still need help figuring out which band to choose....Realize or Lap Band. I have done MUCH research and still am confused and don't know which to go with. Everything I am reading is 50/50 for both. They both have their pros and cons. I need input firsthand from people who have have success or failure with either band. Please post if you have already had the surgery and have any advice for me. I find it easier to make my decision if I can personally hear from people who have already been thru it rather than comparing statistics. Thanks so much!
