[QUOTE="Elc1112, post: 255046, member: 32988"] Jude, you'd be better speaking to your surgeon/doctor about this. I think gastric band surgery should only ever be considered as a last resort. As other have pointed out, it's not a quick fix and the onus is still on you to eat healthily. Do you mind me asking what you eat on a typical day? Have you seen a dietician to discuss less radical options? With regard to insulin - it does, unfortunately, encourage the body to store fat. If you can reduce the amount of insulin you need you can, often, lose weight this way. Even after the band you will still be on insulin so will have to take this into consideration. Em [/QUOTE]
