    Doctor Recommeded Against Lap Band

    This is very interesting.I have a good friend who I went thru this whole process with.We did everything together and when we went to the surgeon's office(the same one) we each came out with 2 different recommendations! He recommended lapband for me & gastric RNY for her.She had surgery 2 weeks before me and has only lost maybe 15 more lbs than me.She cannot tolerate any sweets,she has trouble going to the bathroom regurlarly and she still can not eat very much.She has lost more weight but her skin is also sagging more.So I feel pretty good with my choice.Everyone has to do what is right for themself.It's a personal decision and they are both tools,it's all how you use it!!
  3. How many calories do you try to stick too?? and how filled is your band?(if you dont mind me asking??)Thanks for the great advice...I know I really need to amp up the exercise and I really have a hard time with the protein shakes,can u recommend any good ones?? Thanks!! :)
