Hi,
If you are interested in reading about my Lap Banding experience -
please visit my site below.

At least you chose a fully reversible surgery.

I disagree with this:

"I couldn't come up with a better solution to my Hypertension problem
"

since a lap band isn't going to do anything for you that eating less
and exercising more wouldn't have.

How much did the surgery cost you? Was it painful? How is it affecting
your life now?

"And of course first stop HJ's (Burger King) - Jnr Whopper and half of
the Regular Fries did the trick."

I can see you're well on the way to longterm success.


70kg may seem like a lot to lose, but at 1kg/week that's just a year
and a half. 1kg/week loss is doable for most anyone IMO (especially a
guy your age, sheesh), and it's a lot healthier than the enforced
anorexia of WLS.

Good luck though. Try to eat for nutrional value and not taste. Now
that you've got it you might as well keep it I suppose. Though if I
were you I'd think about NOT getting the damn thing tightened and just
learn how to eat healthy.
