You won't die, too many ppl praying for you!

I will take any and all I can get. ;)

I haven't heard of any Lap Band deaths but the dad of one of my daughter's classmates just recently passed away from complications from gastric bypass. I must say, however, by appearance his BMI was way over 50 and I think he did the surgery as a last ditch effort to lose weight because he was not in great health from being so heavy for so long.

I will take any and all I can get. ;)

i and some of my best friends will be thinking of you......def in our hearts/prayers/thoughts floridas.......you are awesome

Let me know how the tummy tuck goes. Wear your band!

I could die on Tuesday as I am going under for my tummy tuck. But I really don't think it's my time yet so I am going to hope for the best. ;)

To answer your follow up question....I have lost 220 lbs in 2 years. I ate a balanced diet of 1000 calories a day.

Wow! Best of luck with your surgery. My lap band mentor just had hers done over the summer and she feels like a million bucks.
