Has anyone been asked to be in a group study before? My surgeon recommended  me for one and they called today. It sounds really interesting and I said I would do it. I can be placed in one of two "teams" either exercise or education. With the exercise one I would be able to use their equipment and have a personnel trainer or can do it at home. The education would teach me about nutrition and vits and other asspects of wls. It is for 6 months they are doing a bone scan,CT scan, muscle biopsy, blood tests, a sleep study and a bunch of other things. I am so excited to be part of this. And she said they will pay me as well...which is nice but I would do this for nothing just for the education it will give me.

Yes they do them here occasionally, I personally would pick the excersize, it cost more, personal trainer etc, and is harder.

Oh, wow, that's wonderful!! I WISH I could get asked to do one of these. Good luck and keep us posted about the experience, I'd love to hear about it.

I really want the excercise one but I don't get to pic they put you in one of the groups. After they run some of the testing on you.
