I had the lapband myself and I love it.My daughter had the gastric bypass. Good luck with your decision. One thing though with the lapband you can have most anything, just watch what you chose to eat.
As everyone has said you are doing great. You don't want to lose to fast. I think this is the best way. When you lose too fast you may gain it back easier. I think I had 3 or 4 fills before I started getting restrition.Hang in there and be sure to exercize and then excerize more... The more you exercize the faster it will come off.
