Hi, I had the lapband procedure done in Sept. '06. I am now 63 yrs. old and have lost 40 lbs. That isn't much and I still am having trouble getting below that 40 lbs. Fruits and vegies stick and also salmon and chicken. So I take a multi-vitamin and hope that is helping. Anyway, I had mine done by Dr. Verboonen in Tiajuana and he is excellent. Teaches other doctors in Europe and has been doing this for over 20 yrs. The hospital where I stayed overnight was sparkling white and they were all so nice. I still have trouble remembering to eat really slow if I allow myself to get too hungry. Then I throw up and that isn't much fun. But I still would do it again and know it was the only thing that helped me to lose the 40 lbs. I did. I think if I stay on mostly protein drinks, I am better, but can't always get a protein drink as I am a realtor and on the go a lot. Then I eat crackers which are not especially good for you to lose weight on...anyway, write back if you wish and I'll try answer any questions you might have.... Much luck to you, Linzee

I am brand new here...has anyone heard of a Dr. Irvaraus? Not sure of spelling...in Mexico? Thank you.
