Hi Alaska~~Im kinda new too...I actually am going for the gastric right now havent made mind up 100% but I can gurantee u that at first I was full force into the band no gastric at all...but after hearing how hurt some others are after not succeeding w/ it were and seeing how many people had band slippage it swayed me alot so I signed onto a gastric forum well technically its for both Thinnertimes.com And the forums there are overflowing w/ info about it and once saw peoples success stories and some brought me to tears and actually I guess like people say your spouse is your better half...my hubby was reluctant to agree w/ the band he felt i would give up and it wouldnt give me the results I wanted so that would be another failed weight loss attempt. But honestly thats all I can say Im not gonna dare tell you which to get...I actually finalize everything for myself monday and get my surg date so then I will say 100% that im getting the rny performed rather than the band. I hope this helped u!! Take care all

Thanks for your comment on my pic. We live in a beautiful small town of 9000 people called Magstadt. It is next to Sindelfingen, where Mercedes Benz are manufactured.. The next biggest town is Stuttgart.

Thanks girls for all of the wonderfully evil women comments( as we all need to be from time to time lol). He loves me youre so right but i think hes just being a little selfish but yet his argument is that hes afraid i will be unhappy with the results and that I'll regret doing the band. But honestly im so torn betw the 2 right now...im gonna let my surgeon decide...because Ive calculated and seems like its about 2 more risks with RNY than it is with the band. IDK!!! Girls I dont know what to do oh well atleast PCM referred me YAY! So im in the military's system theyre doin it if i get apprvd. I was overweight enough and it helps that i wore these european weight in my butt...hey i got away with it no one could even tell. But blood pressure was slightly elevated which it never is. So long story short going to seminar or class on 20th so we'll see. Why I need a class IDK i got u guys. DUh! TTYL girlies:thumbup:

Yeah i was 235 at appt + weights i hid..lol abt 5 lbs extra and 5/6, co morbs joint pain and back pain. Thats it Blood pressure was elevated at PCM appt so that helped me out as well. IM REFERRED YAY! Now just about 20 million other steps to do. :wink_smile: -
Very excited thanx for asking..but a little perturbed..listen to this...hubby thinks i should do gastric to lose it faster...so I said yeah but then I'll need a tummy tuck and he's like well who cares we'll pay for it.hmmmm Im startin to think somebody really wants me to lose it fast and me I want to lose it steady...What ya girls think of that? Need some input...
