Thank you everyone for responses...I think I have held off on the surgery for right now. I'm going to try and loose the 50lbs on my own. I'm just so unconfident in myself sometimes. I'm afraid of being turned down by dr.'s since they did not do the band themselves. So, in that case I'm going to check all my options as far as doing it in the U.S. and Mexico. Thanks to everyone who responded back to me. I am going to stay so keep in touch!
