Options
I have been thinking a lot about weight loss surgery lately. Has anyone else done this? Any advice, comments, or opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    I haven't, but I know someone who has. He had lap band. He's doing well.

    Just to add some contrast, I also know someone who had gastric bypass surgery, and it darn near killed him. Please make sure you talk *at length* with an unbiased family physician. You want to know *all* the risks before undertaking something of this magnitude. (and it's an extremely invasive procedure as well)
