is a support group for people who have had an Adjustable Gastric Band (AGB) implanted and for those who are investigating this new type of minimally invasive surgery for the severly obese. This list is meant to be a supportive forum where members can share their success, discuss frustrations and experiences, support each other and make new friends.

Message from the Owner: Hi There... Perhaps you would want to consider joining a 'Bandster' online community email service with a different emphasis. This email support group is for people with adjustable gastric bands or those considering adjustable gastric banding. The emphasis of this group is correct clinical and practical advice to the beginner and the new bandster, not a group to discuss topics not directly related to AGB. Thanks For considering Smart Bandsters
DISCLAIMER: This group is a group of patients, for patients, and by patients only. This is a group for patient support only, Not for Medical advice. Any information received here, should NOT be considered as advice equal to that of a qualified medical person. ( CYA type: BoilerPlateDisclamer )
Key Words: THEBANDSTERS, AGB, LAP BAND, LAPBAND, LAP-BAND, BIOENTERICS, BARIATRIC, WEIGHT, WEIGHT LOSS, WLS, OBTECH, SAGB, LABG, LSAGB, CWSAJENDSLEY
