Re: Introduction - Maureen Doyle

[Guest guest]

Congratulations on your weight loss, Maureen, and your recent one year

anniversary! I was wondering about your reference to having RNY bypass with

" band " -- are you referring to a " lapband " or something more analagous to Dr.

Fobi's prodecure (I think I read he puts some sort of plastic ring around the

stoma.) If you do mean a lapband, I wasn't aware that was being done in

conjunction with RNY. I am curious!
