Has anyone watched this series on Discovery Health Channel? Its about a bariatric center in England. They perform many Lap band procedures. I find it interesting to really see other Lap Band patients and the impact of the surgery on their lives.

I've been watching it, and it is interesting.

I thought this was on the WE channel?

I saw a portion of it last night - they require 3 MONTHS of liquids post surgery!!!!! I was so sad to see it, too - the husband who resented his wife for having the surgery (because of the expense) and so he kept setting her up to fail. He would make her favorite things and taunt her with it. SO sad!!!! I'm glad its being shown though - people need band education!

It is on the WE Channel....I sure hope they follow up on the woman that wasn't losing. I'm anxious to see how she is doing. But I didn't think her husband was taunting her....her job was tasting food, I think.

He may not have exactly been taunting her, but he sure wasn't supportive. He really was focusing on the money, but then I got the sense that she was pretty determined to get the surgery no matter what he thought.

I have been following the show faithfully.

I think that the one husband sucks. He paid for her to have the surgery, only to bitch about it constantly and throw it in her face. What help is that???

He is completely non-supportive. He eats in front of her constantly and makes comments about how it tastes so good-- and that was when she was on a liquid diet!!!

She definately needs to change jobs. She is a food taster and it looks like she eats junk food constantly during work.

The other lady who lost alot of weight (170 lbs, I think) has done an awesome job, but got really carried away with her looks. I don't blame her, I would too if I had such a complete transformation! But, she quit paying bills to spend alot of $$ on clothes that she wasn't even wearing. She became obsessed.

My heart goes out to both of the ladies. This weight loss issue is alot to overcome.
