Topic: RE: boyfriend wants to have lap-band
yes he knows exactly what he would be getting into as I had my band done july 9 he knows that it is'nt easy and I can't figure out why anyone would be so discouraging to another person and he dosn't need the surgery to be a "MACHO MAN" be cause he is very sweet and caring and a really nice guy to boot
Topic: RE: just wondering...
Hi, Pat:
I am having RNY gastric bypass surgery... I was initially interested in lapband surgery, but my Dr was not as enthused about it as gastric bypas surgery. I've been reading many things about both surgeries, and I'm happy w/ the decision that I've made to have the gastric bypass surgery.
I am still waiting to hear from my surgeons office to schedule my surgery date... and I'm just so ready at this point to begin this journey. I know it will not be an easy one, but I feel in my heart that it is one that will improve my quality of life.
I appreciate your response. Thank you very much for your feedback.![](http://images.obesityhelp.com/_shared/images/smiley/msn/batlashes.gif)

Hi Becky,
I had surgery Jan 31st of this year with Dr. Johnell and I am so glad I did. Everybody, and I do mean everybody, in that office I have the utmost respect for. They are caring and professional and will answer any question any time and I truly believe they are the reason I have loved my band so far. Also their post-op support is great!
Good luck to you!

Hi Becky,
I had rny with Dr. Johnell on July 10th this year. Dr. Johnell and his staff are really great. I have had a couple complications but they were unforseeable ones.
I had to be flight for lifed to greeley for emergency hernia surgery and dr. Johnell was in the emergency room at 10pm waiting for me, that impressed me greatly.. I think they are all wonderful.
Your lap band will go beautifully!! GL with your journey!

Topic: 6 years post op need your help
I am 6 years post op RNY gastric bypass with Dr. Snyder. I lost lots of weight initially then at about 2 years post op got pregnant and had a baby. Following the pregnancy and now being a mother I have gained back about 80 lbs from my lowest weight. I am really frustrated!!!! I did make an appointment to follow up with Dr. Snyder but would like some support in the mean time. I don't even know if anyone else this far out still comes here but I thought I would try.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
