vanessa17 0 Posted November 26, 2008 Hi my name is Vanessa. I am new to this site. I live in NYC I was born in May. I have had a weight problem my whole life. Recently I have gained weight and just have not been able to put it off no matter what I try. I have spend hundreds of dollars on weight management programs like weight watchers, jenny craigs, and thats not including all the money I have spent on nutristionst and gyms. It seems that the more I work out and diet the more weight I put on. Right now I am at a point that I have to consider surgery, thats why I am researching the Lap Band Procedure. I am seeking a doctor in Queens, NY that does the surgery. If any body knows of any please feel free to recommend. I just wanted to introduce myself to the site. I hope to get some reply... Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted November 27, 2008 You sound just like me. I had been going to the gym every day for about 3 years and exercised my brains out and did nothing but gain more weight. The band was the answer for me. I hope some more people can recommend a dr. for you. I am on the west coast, so I don't know anything about doctors in your area. You might want to put a post up somewhere else on the board, where it will get more views. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpecialK 22 Posted November 27, 2008 (edited) Check out the New York forum thread and you hopefully will find lots of people in the NYC area that have had lapband surgery. It should be under the USA Local Forum groups. http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f53/ Edited November 27, 2008 by SpecialK Added link to NY thread Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
