LAP-BAND Patients

I was told by my family doctor that I should consider having bariatric surgery back in March of '09 because I was diabetic and I had other health issues. I was very esitant at first but decided to go to make the appointment to see the other Dr they recommended. Right away I was told I was a candidate for surgery I was still hesitant but after reading all the pamphlets on the different types of weight loss surgerys their were I decided to look into the lapband further. So at the next Dr appointment I told him I wanted lap band because I thought it was safer, not as bad of a recovery time and I liked the fact that I would get all the nutrients from the food I ate not just a part.
