Kyle, Wow Thank You so much for your reply. You really helped me out with your positive and informative answer. I thought that The people I saw with the lap banding looked great and did not have the haggard look of the gastric bypass patients. I just wanted to hear that from someone else as I thought maybe it was just me. I am a high energy person but have lost some of that with weight gain. I just want to get back to feeling and looking great again. I have to go to a seminar tomorrow night to get all of the Information so I should be more informed then. Thanks again for your helpful reply. Lucky

I am trying to come to a decision if I really want to take this drastic step in weight control. I am worried that I may not be able to get enough nutricion to stay healthy. What about all the medications that I need each day will I actually be able to take those without them coming back up? Can you actually take in enough calories each day to keep going and have to appropriate energy levels to work. I am a teacher and I chase little ones all day so I do need to maintain a certain level of energy. Why the Lap Band over the Gastric Bypass? I know one is more surgical then the other which one really works the best? I also am concerned that I may not get enough Vitamins, and can I take Liquid Vitimins? Will I get the loose skin and tired look that so may bariatric surgery patients get? I have some aquaintences that had Gastric Bypass and they are thin but they look more then there age. Am I worring to much here? Any one please fill me in.
