sorry it took me so long, I have been out all weekend. Anyways.... I went to my seminar yesterday and it was everything I had hoped. Dr. Onopchenko was very, VERY informative. He didn't sugar coat anything, but at the same time he gave us such hope. He does lap band and bypass but did not try to sway people either way, he gave us the information and now it's up to us to make an educated, well informed decision. I knew that I wanted the Lap Band before the seminar but know I am totally sure this is for me...yayyyyy!!!

It was really comforting to know that I had already learned so much on my own from this forum and other research. Although Dr.O clarified some things, most, but not all of what he had to say about the band I had seen posted from people here.

All I can say about the bypass is NO WAY! It is way too scary and drastic

for me.

Thanks for asking Eileen!!

I'm so glad it went well. I felt the same way going into the seminar and leaving it. I learned so much here and when the doctor spoke everything seemed so clear in my mind.

WTG !!!

Hugs !!!

I'm so confused. I figured I was the only Lisa Lisa Bo Bisa from New Jersey in the world, and I just atttended a seminar, too. Okay, I'll go to bed and try to get some of that "sleep" that people rave about.

Losing my marbles due to insomnia, so I'll shut up now. Glad your seminar went well though!
