Hi all,
Just found this site while scoping out the internet for info on lap-bands. A friend of mine had hers done back in May and is doing great.
I had always sworn that I would NEVER EVER EVER go under the knife, especially for a weight loss surgery. But I'm at the end of my rope and don't know what else to do.
I have tried Weight Watchers a BAZILLION times and have gained weight while on it several times
I've tried "dieting" on my own to no avail, I've been on pills from my DR. but nothing has worked.
I've been trying to soak up as much info as I can on lap-banding (preferably from people who have had it done). I'd love to hear all about the positives and negatives that come with this procedure. And I guess the best way to get that info is to read this forum.
I can't wait to get started!!!
Thanks, Pam
