I was contemplating on doing the LapBand surgery in the near future and was wondering what all of your experiences have been.  I have some questions, if you don't mind answering for me: How was your energy level in the first 2-4 weeks after the surgery? How was it doing the liquid and then pureed food diet in the weeks following surgery?  Was it hard psycholigically to give up food and know that this was your new way of eating?   How much weight did you lose in the first month? to date? Have you had to do very many adjustments with the band since you had the surgery? Are you glad you had the surgery? Thanks! Christie

Well I am informed about what the surgery is and all the info that goes with it.   I was just looking for personal experiences from people who actually have had it done.   And I had some specific questions that aren't answered in some of the testimonials I've read.  And it's even better coming from people who live in Utah, so I thought I'd come here and ask!   Thanks for the info though.
