    Brand Names Folks

    I walked out of my last appointment with the website for Realize and a pamplet for the Lap Band. I like the low profile port and that really seems to be the thing that divides the two. My doc hasn't mentioned anything about being concerned with my anatomy effecting the band I choose and I'm fairly certain she'll do what is best, if my choice does not work out with my body. Thank you guys for replying, it is nice to hear from others with first hand experience. :crying:
  2. Howdy Folks! SO! I am approved (WOOHHOO) and terrified and excited and on cloud nine and my nerves are all over the place and I am hoping to survive until my surgery date. I have been waiting as patiently as is possible for me and now that it is really on, I would love to hear from you guys and girls about what brand of band you are choosing and why. Please pull no punches and tell me what you think… will you give me your thoughts?!

    Need encouragment

    OH WOW!! I really thought I was the only one that opted to keep this HUGE life change to myself!! Only my immediate family and my boss know what is happening, I work in an orthopedic O.R. after being in general surgery for years and I have heard a lot of self righteous people discuss this. All the stories seem to have become urban legends at this point. But as long as we trust in our support teams and believe in ourselves, we can do this. Thank you for your post Jaimee21005, I was just kind of glancing thru and your post caught my eye and motivated me to step outside myself and comment. YOU ROCK! :blushing:
