How to decide lap band or gastric?
Beachbunny replied to angilu's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am the same height as you and chose lapband, i had some second guesses this morning and my hubby talked me back to normal . i weigh 217. you should be easily able to qualify for either. -
open it and mix a splenda with it and a smidge of water !!

What have I done to myself!!!
Beachbunny replied to shelyshely's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
shely, its good that you feel so good, but remember that the band is there in conjunction with diet changes to help you lose weight. From what i heard and talked to my surgeon about , is the fact that the person has to say no to the food not the band. Maybe try to stay away from foods that might be a trouble "zone" -

Ill have 1 piece of fruit and 2 cheeze sticks during the day . So far im not starving to death but we shall see.
Today is my very last Visit ...pcp for him to do the final clearance letter to my surgeon.
Good luck and keep me informed!!!
