Hi needchange. My advice would be for you to look at the various weightloss surgeries and pick out the one that best seems to fit your lifestyle. If you've been to a seminar and met with your doctor, then you've got at least an idea of band life. Are you as familiar with the RnY, DS, Sleeve? Don't get me wrong.....I love my band, and it's working great for me.....but I think it's up to every individual to pick the surgery to match them. Hope that helped! Good luck!
