I have been over weight all my life.  i am now 38 years old  5'3 and 276 lbs and have decided to take control of my life.  I researched lapband and VG on the internet and found a very knowlegable surgeon in my area,  i scheduled an appt and went for a consultation.  the doctor was very friendly and took a lot of time with me discussing WL options.  I went in thinking the lap band was what i needed.  the doctor menitoned that there was a lot of sucess with VG patients and the WL was more guaranteed.... and thats what i wanted a guarantee.  they gave me 2 names and numbers of previous patients that had had VG and the other lap band.  i called them both and got a lot of insight on there progress.  i did more research and decided to have the VG.  Now here i am 2 1/2 weeks post op and signing into OH!
