Here are the resources that helped me in my decision against getting the Lapband. I compared these results to personal experiences with real people who had the Lapband and I am convinced the Lapband is not for me.

Lapband Patients That Inspired Me:
This man has the most compelling reasons against the Lapband. I know not all people will feel this way but I can relate to his experiences and feelings and I appreciate how he has shared them to help others. I hope to someday meet this man.
