    considering banding

    I'm considering banding I'm 5'3 190lb. I need to lose at least 40lb but find it almost imposible to do so on my own everyone including my family and boyfriend thinks I'm crazy. but I'm considering the surgery late this year in Mexico. are they right is such a surgery too dramatic for someone who is only considered mildly obese. I scared that I'll continue to gain and my weight problem will be out of control

    considering banding

    Thanks cashley My insurance refuse to pay for the surgery so I decide to take out a loan this will be an investing in myself, health and future. I'm not going to wait till I'm suffering from a co-morbidities. I think that prevention is better that cure

    considering banding

    Donna part of the reason I'm considering the surgery is because it I'm in the military. I exercise regularly and follow a very healthy diet most of the time. according to the Military standard I'm actually 55lb overweight if I fail to make the weight standard my nine year Military career will be over.

    Newbie

    hello everyone I'm new to this site I have been considering the lapband surgery for about a year. but I have'nt been able to do much research I'm actually considering having the surgery through lite'nfree in Monterray Mexico. Can anyone give me some input on what my first step is. I'm 27 5'3 190lb my insurance will not pay for the surgery. can someone offer some advise, my goal are to lose 50lb and finally have my weight under control. I wanted to have the surgery with lite'n free because they perform their surgery at the oca hospital which is consider one of the best hospital in Mexico.
