I've Got a Date for My LapBand

Nov 19 is my day!  Wednesday I start my 14 days of Opti-Fast.  I so excited but nervous, too.  I think I'm more excited than nervous.

Hi!!

I had the Lap Band surgery done August 2006, and I have only lost 12 pounds since the surgery.   I have difficulty eating the foods I should because they seem to lodge in my esophagaus.    This only reason I tell you this is because, if, it doesn't work out, your insurance might not pay for a revison.  I am trying to get one because I fell it has not worked for me, and it is difficult. 

Just do more research.  I am trying to get a revision to the DS switch. 

The Lap Band has worked for many'  however, it has not worked for me.

God Bless and take care,
Margie

I only got my band on 10/6/08, so I can't give you any help as far as what it has done for me, but I would suggest you check out the post newbies on the lap band board. It has a lot of good information.
