Advice From someone with a lap band PLZ

[WhatIsNormal]

Hello, I have started the procedures for weight loss surgery. I have not yet decided on the procedure I would like (roux en-y gastric bypass, or lap band) I was wondering if there was any advice that any of you could give me about the lap band that might be helpful to me. I know ppl who have had the bypass, but have never known anyone who has had the lap band. I would appreciate anything you could tell me, good, bad or ugly. Thank you so much.

There are a lot of good things about the lap band such as you are not restricted to what you can eat, but how much. You should (for best results) eat healthy though. You do not have dumping syndrom (syndrome) if you eat sugar. And you generally do not have a vitamin deficency either as you still have the stomach attached. If your like me, you tend to eat fast and the brain never seems to register that your full until you are really full which in turn make you lathargic among other weighty issues. The restriction of the lap band - you emediatly know your full after about a half cup or less.

I'm scheduled for surgery by Dr. Rodriguez in Juarex, MX this Friday.  I'm nervous but determined to get the best results possible.  Has anyone been there?  What should I expect, etc.?

I have a band and I am restricted in what i can and can't eat - bread, meat, vegies.  apart from that, it has worked well.  if you don't sabotage the band you will lose the weight with the aid of exercise.  have a good team with you on your journey and you will have the support you need to know if you are having problems/issues with the band or the port.
