I think most of you are being very harsh with this person.
There is only a 60% success rate with this operation!!
There is going to be some depression, and uncertainty!!
This is just a tool, your right.
I'm very happy with the Lapband.
I'm not loosing as fast as I would like, but it is coming off, and I have alot more energy!! I find that I have to eat 800-1000 calories to loose weight, and work out.
What the Lapband does is help that your not hungry as much, but it still takes alot of work, and determination!!
Go to support meetings.
Think positive!!
Good Luck!!
