My first choice was the sleeve surgery but my insurance has a 50 bmi requirement... which I think is, at the least, and outdated policy but it is what it is. My choices are bypass or banded plication. I am having trouble finding anyone who has had this. Just wondering, if you had this procedure, are you happy with it?

Some sites are sayinbg that weight loss is comparable to RNY... but I was wondering if there are any real peopple that had this sone and can concur... I have to decide today... any thoughts???

They have a forum like this called banded Plication talk. Maybe u can look at that forum for some help ?

Thanks... I'll try and find it...

Go over to lap band talks site. There is a girl there named Tawnee. She just had it done earlier this month.
