  1. I am with you on this one. I was 183 and went to 163 with a lapband and up to 179 in 4 years. Even had plastics to correct loose skin. I removed my band in April and hanging on to last 40 pounds. Come on 5 pounds weight loss for $15000 surgery!!!!
  2. I was laying down for first 2 weeks a lot but I was allowed to sit as well. Not sure why you could not sit . I was in Mexico for 2 weeks then I flew home over 4 hour flight. I had multiple procedures done at same time so there was a bit of a discount. I think its $2500 plus a stay at a recovery house.
  3. Dr hurtado did my friend surgery snd doing mine.

  19. I had my lapband removed April 17th. I still struggle with some foods due to my stomach shape is still same as with a band. My hunger level is up. I am not able to shake off the 15 pounds I gained with a band last year. I wonder if sleeve will even work for me
