Whats Wrong With This Video???



Recommended Posts

I was online looking at different places to see what shows on TV have done on Lap-Bands. And I came across this video from the Doctor Oz show.

Please watch it and tell me what is missing from these 2 ladys daily intake.

I know I like my coffee so had to switch to de-caff but they are missing something I was tols is very important.....

For some reason I can't load the video but if it is the one that I think it is then what is missing is food. If these are the ladies that survive on a couple of teaspoons a day they are not using the band the way it is supposed to be used, they are probably too tight and I would even hazard a guess that they are lying about what they eat.

If I remember ..... There was a thread here at LBT about the show when it aired. I think many people were pretty upset that the lapband experience was not shown the right way by Dr. Oz. I know it sure didn't show how it has worked for me.

good to hear the food wasn't correct. I was banded 1 week ago and it scared me.

I think the food on the before was less too :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
