Hi Jaleena i posted my dates form the begining right above your last post i didnt go to a siminar but i researched both deeply and think the lapband is better for me. My doc say its my choice but i think he was trying to get my to do the gastric. He say alot of people expect the fast results likr gastric but i already know its a slow process and alot more effort with lapbandbut im willing to put in the work and have realistic expectations
