My name is Hope, I have a friend who weighs about 240 and is 5'4. She said that she is getting the lap band. I am partially supportive, because I can imagine her being more confident and that makes me want to help her through this. However, I started looking this up, and am a little worried about the side effects. Has anyone experienced the slippage problem? Or is that rare? She's only 15, and I feel like this is a really, really big deal. I need to know if I should be alright with this, and if I'm just worrying about nothing. Thanks!
Hope
