RetroOne 0 Posted January 17, 2009 I am new to this site, investigating if the Lap Band procedure is really for me. My sister is going to have the procedure done in March '09 and she advised me to check out this forum for information and support. I visited my doctor only yesterday, where he mentioned bariatric surgery - I told him I was leaning toward the lap band, but was not firm on it. I have alot of things on my mind I need to sort through before beginning this process. Anxiety anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

babbs3772 1 Posted January 17, 2009 I think anxiety is normal For me Lap Band surgery was the best option, I however do have an Aunt and cousin (her daughter) that had Gastric Bypass and it was the best for them. I think it will really come down to what you qualify for and what makes you the most comfortable. Research, research and research! Good luck to you and welcome to this forum, I will look forward to seeing you around on your journey Barbie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
