Patti.Ramsey

I hadn't heard of the Realize Band prior to my first appointment with my Doctor and was surprised to hear there was another option out there. My Doctor suggested the Realize Band for me due to my body structure. He explained the Realize Band is another brand, built slightly differnt but works the same way. It does have a smaller port, which is why he suggested it for me. I get banded on the 16th, I can go with either the smaller Lap Band or the Realize Band. My Doctor is letting me make the decision on which one to go with... Patti

Finally Approved !!! It's been 1 year since I started this process, I'm now scheduled for February 16th. I wasn't nerves about the surgery until now, I suppose this is normal. I just registerd yesterday with LapBand Talk, I'm looking forward to reading everyones questions, concerns and success stories. Have a wonderful day... Patti
