Welcome to BAF. You should go with the surgery that is best for you and only research will help you decide.  Please dont just research RNY and the lapband, there are other choices (DS, VSG and others) that may be the best surgery for you.

Good Luck.

Thanks FAM,

1) Juice- I sent my dues...foodstamps and WIC was my payment of choice for the initial payment.

2) That pic was New Years Eve and it was super cold especially downtown at the Peach Drop. This week has been more like fall though. But hey don't sleep on Atlanta it has been as low as 15 degrees already this year.

3) So I have been researching for like 3 years now but I think I'm getting nervous because my job has finally elected WLS to be covered. My PCP says Lap-Band would be best for me but I can find too many Banders here most people I've come in contact with had RNY.

4) I made some progress today. Had my blood drawn, took initial forms to the surgeons office, and request my referrals for ALL the different docs I have to see....well its not that many just 3.

Thanks everyone for the great input and I see this will be home or a LOOOOng time.

Love yall,

BEE
