Finally! Some Positive Press For Lap Band

[Jenn1214 120]

Let me start out by saying that I don't watch any of these Housewives shows, and I never knew who Lauren Manzo was before I saw this story on AOL. I know nothing of her weight struggles or anything, but I watched this video where she talks about getting the Lap Band and I was pretty happy!

She makes sure people understand that Lap Band is not a magic cure, nor is it the "easy way out" that most people think it is. She also acknowledges that she had the band loosened so she made sure she could eat healthy foods and exercises regularly. I also love that she points out that the Lap Band does not stop you from putting unhealthy foods in your mouth.

Best of all, she says that Lap Band is the best thing that she's ever done for herself :-) I am so glad that FINALLY someone in the public eye is showing that the Lap Band is a positive thing. Way to go Lauren!

That is great! The youngest son (corey?) from pawn stars had it too. In the newer episodes he looks awesome, he's lost a lot of weight!

Great news and that is good to know. I love Pawn Stars and I have not noticed Corey's weight loss yet.. I need to pay better attention....

I don't watch either show (though I have caught ONE episode of pawn stars)...I'm not interested in most reality tv (though I do watch Big Brother).

I love Corey, he's my fave on the show! But you gotta admit, he get's no respect, as smart as he is. Although I don't know what he see's in Chumley.

More on topic.....I am always excited when people in the public eye have had or speak positively about Lap Band surgery and Life. So far, the Hollywood reviews have been positive, let's hope it stays that way! Well, I guess for now, we'll have to be our own Hollywood and tell each other how great Band living can be! Each positive word keeps me going....

i actually watch the show and have since it started and over the years i have related with lauren and her struggle feeling the exact same way, i got a sudden push to look more into lap band for myself because of her. i dont know why i worry so much about what others say but having lauren go public sort of gives me a better feeling about doing this as well.
