As for my husband, he just went in to get a refill and the Nurse Practitioner gave hime a real scolding. I mean severe. I told him I'm going to send her a thank you note. She told him that he had to take action or he needed to get the Lap Band becuase his health was a serious matter.

This all before the bloodwork came back a lot better than the last. BUT still... he is on track to a healthier life. I'm also very proud of him to tell her that he hadn't given diet and exercise a fair try.. so he would do that before he would consider the lapband.

I honestly think she was just going for shock and awe... and wouldn't really have let him get to far down the Lapband path until he after he had tried.

I'm seriously going to send her a card!!!
