My banding date is in the first week of Jan. I am still on the fence about getting the lapband . Can anyone help ? Do it or not . Is it worth all the risks ??? I am 305 about 125 ibs over weight . Thanks:thumbup:

Indeed, you need to make that decision and figure out if that's what your best option would be.

I lost roughly 120lbs in the first year, and my crippling back pain was gone after only a few months. Saved my life too

No brainer for me, but that's a hindsight proclamation.

All I can say is what has been said before. Only you know if you should, and if you can tolerate it. Although, there are complications there are also pros!
