Pre-op question to WLS Grads, Your insight would truly help me.

Hi! Thank you all so much for taking the time to give me your input! I did change to the band after all. If I even lose 45 pounds, I would be extremely happy. I don't think I would want to lose more than 80 pounds at the most. if you have to work really hard at both of them, I have to choose the least restrictive surgery. That also leaves RNY, and any new options that become available, open for me. Christina J - Thank you for putting into words exactly what I have been struggling with in this decision. It saddens me that I won't be skinny in only a few months, but for once in my life, I am looking into the future and that is a good thing. Congratulations and best wishes to all of you, Risa
