Struggled with my weight my whole life. Was comfortable with the lapband and knew it was the right decision for me regardless of the amount of weight I had to lose. My starting weight was 313.6lbs and I'm currently 156.3lbs. It was worth all of the hard work, and I recommend the lapband for anyone who is willing to make a lifestyle change and work hard to use the tool at hand. It has changed my life!

Great review?

My Doctor:

My rating:

Excellent on everything. Very informed about nutrition, the mental aspect and very supportive and active in a positive journey.

Hi Stephanie, I also live near MI. Was the $2K the total cost or your portion after Insurance?

Hi Stephanie! I ran across this site and seen that your lap band surgery was $2k!!! I live in Michigan as well and wondered if you could tell me where you had it done?
