In my educated opinion....Lap bands only work if you eat small portions and exercise regularly...So..if you have the will power to do that, you may as well forgot the surgery and eat right and take exercise.
So... If you don't mind I'd like to offer my services as a nutritional consultant. I can e-mail you some paperwork to fill out so I can get your general health level. Then, after you see your Doctor for a checkup and tell him/her you want to diet and exercise and get an OK, Then we can work on a change in your eating and setup an exercise plan.
My goal for all my clients is to improve health first then weight loss will happen on it's own. I believe in SLOW weight loss. No miricle pills, powders, shakes, starvation diets, etc...just good food, exercise, viatmins and minerals, and small changes in habits over time.
I don't believe in surgical weight loss. It's dangerous and costly, and not nessicary in 98% of all patients. Many times the DR say "Loose 90lb and we'll do the operation.." If a person can loose 90 lb from diet and exercise, Why can't they loose 150lb by doing the same thing? Instant gratification....People didn't gain 300lb over night, why do they expect to loose it over night?
Anyway, If you want to, click on my website and send me an e-mail.
Sorry, I hijacked the thread. I has a soapbox to get on. Now I'm done.
