I have insurance... just a co pay and deductible... How are you feeling?

Thanks Melissa... I am still scared about side effects, but I think I am finally seeing all the good of the surgery, out weighs the negatives. I am impressed with your weight loss.... great job! ...

I am wondering how you are doing... I am thinking about getting the surgery - any diarrhea, dumping, vomitting, or regrets... great weight loss :)

Thanks so much Hev... You are doing awesome and I appreciate your reply. I am a teacher and do not get to use the restroom often w/ elementary students.... so that would be a huge problem for me. ...

How are you feeling?

PS... congrats and you look wonderful!!!!

Wow, what an awesome job you have done!
I am scared too, because I have heard many say they have constant diarrhea and/ or dumping.
If you don't mind me asking... Has this been a problem for...

What a great story. I am thinking of having the surgery done, but I am so scared of diarrhea and dumping. Have you had any troubles w/ that? Or, any other suggestions? I am a teacher and hardly...

I am wondering if the diarrhea has stopped for you girls... I am wanting to get the surgery but knew someone who had it for life... I don't want to live like that!! Thanks, Kris

Thanks Lora!! That makes me feel better about getting it done! I am so ready, but I just found out ins. will cover most of it, or I would have done it sooner! Keep up the great work!!!

I think I am hearing almost everyone say the same thing... So what an inspiration you are for me! How long did it take you to recover. I am a teacher, and if you go by your surgery, about how long...

Thank you so much for your information!!! It makes me feel much better about the surgery!

I have heard a lot of people saying that they need to convert to the gsleeve after the lap band... My main concern is loosing too much weight, hair and nutrients - not being healthy, also being out...

That is one of my worst fears... besides feeling nauseated for a long time... and can I never eat carbs again? I am at the beginning research stages - 2 seminars scheduled on 6/26/13 and 7/1/13......

I'm 47 and thinking of either getting a lapband or sleeve, any suggestions????
