  1. hey! The best way to inform your parents that you want to get a lapband done is for you to be sure that you really want to get this surgery done. No matter what other people tell you. There will be people that are going to tell you that you are crazy and they won't understand why you want this. This happened to me earlier this year. Another thing you can do is compair other similar surgerys. Good Luck!
  2. i was baned when i was 14 (i'm 17 now) when i got my band done the insurance wouldn't cover the op, and you had to be over 18 100 lb over wieght and BMI over 40 so i got it done in mexico at OCC with dr. ortiz

  5. instead of having chocolate, you can try having soy chocolate milk. it taste really good!! that's what i have when am craving chocolate.
  6. Honey your doing fine!! when i got my band on I didn't lose that much weight. i only lost 7 pounds with the liquid diet, which isnt that much... ocne your body gets used to your new attitude towards the new you, you might lose more weight, but at the same time you might gain a few pound. that happened to me, and i did lose those pounds that i gained and more. sometimes cardio isnt the only solution to weight lose. you need to built your muscles. and dont worry everyone was suprise that i didnt lose as much weihgt as the doctors thought that i would... so dont worry about it, and not everyone is different so we dont lose the weight the same.
