Good Luck and my prayers are with you Sawana

I am in the pre op stage and not looking forward to the liquid diet. Hang in there, I wil be needed you all after my surgery

I am 54 and about 60lbs over weight. I was above to have gastic bypass from my insurance. My Dr. thinks gastic bypass is best for me. I am not sure about that! I think I would feel better with the band. I am now reading all information about the band. I have a friend who had the band and it did not work for her. She did not loss weight and was very sick with the band. I know you do not loss weight as fast with the band that you would with the bypass. I am very scared to have the bypass. So now I will be seeing my dr and tell her that I would feel better the band. Has anyone had both surgeries? Please share your experience

Thank you all for the information. Please kept in touch and I will let you know what happens to me!
