Anyone lose friends after Lap Band?

[FailureIsntAnOption 0]

i totally lost my best friend of 11 years! i was a-band-oned! 10 months ago i started this journey with the seminar and was just banded on aug.19th. i told her right away what i decided to do. we were diet and walking buddies. everything together, talked each day and live next door to eachother. all phone calls stopped. nothing. i have sent her flowers, cards and told her personally i want my best friend back. i get excuses. she knew of my surgery and has never even called to see how i am.last summer she had a minor surgery and i cooked for her family for a whole week. i also cleaned her house and of course have been there for her through many trials in her life. i'm very depressed about this. she knows i have health issues and i'm hoping loss of weight will cure them. i never would have imagined this would happen. lisa6:confused:

This is a sad story Lisa, one that I can totally relate to.

You deserve a better friend.

This is a sad thread.

I really never conceived of this happening in real friendships. Heck, I wasn't even surprised by the surgery results ending in broken marriages (I can see that happening more easily, I guess).
