Welcome Betty, you have posted some interesting messages tonight. If you have been looking into lapband for some time now, I am suprized you called it "an elastic" in an earlier post. Where are you from? Do you have access to a surgeon, with knowledge of the band?

Hi, and welcome.

I'm not sure I understand your message, but would like to help if I can. Do I read correctly that you are trying to gain 75 kilos? Why? Is that to reach some kind of weight minimum your provider/surgeon requires?

Hi wheetsin i think you've replied to me instead of fat4lyfe, what i think Betty was trying to say is that her aim is to be 75kgs not gain it.:rose: lol.

Hi Betty! I remember being where you are in the process. Took me 5 years to commit to doing it and it is a decision I do not regret. It took me that amt of time to really decide that I was ready to do what was necessary to be successful with the surgery in changing my attitude toward food and my eating habits. I hope you will continue to think about it. It has changed my life! Given it back actually!

Was responding to her, but I get it now. I read things very literally.

      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.
