Couples Having Lap Band

My wife and I are both having our surgery Aug. 20th. We have been on this journey together since January. Any other couples do this together?

    My husband is naturally slim so he didn't need WLS. However, he has been my greatest supporter throughout this journey. Best wishes for both of you.

    This is a really good blog of a banded couple you might want to follow. She doesn't post very often right now, but she was very active for a while and had some great tips, etc.
