For Rebecca H., having the Lap Band procedure was a priceless effort.

Rebecca said she is probably no different than anyone else who probably thinks about losing weight.

Rebecca was driving to work one morning and heard the radio ad for Lap Band surgery. She said here she was driving down the road, listening to a commercial about losing weight, amd she is fat.

So, Rebecca came in for a consultation and decided to move forward with the procedure, a procedure that she now says has changed her life for the better.

"I tried other facilites and it was all about the money," Rebecca commented. Rebecca notes that money was never an issue with TopSurgeons as her insurance covered the entire procedure.

"They (TopSurgeons) answered all my questions and they are really comfortable people," Rebecca said.

Rebecca notes that like any normal person, she was initially scared about having the procedure done, but the staff at TopSurgeons made her feel at ease.

Since having the Lap Band surgery, Rebecca has gone from a size 22 to a size 16, with some of her clothes now dropping down on her that she previously had problems getting into.

Rebecca had the surgery on a Thursday and was up and moving around the next day. "I think your head makes it (the surgery procedure) really bigger than it is," she noted.

Noting that mothers at school like at her differently now because of her weight loss, Rebecca says she feels better about herself and she makes sure to watch what she eats. "It is my responsibility to take care of me," she notes. "It feels now like I'm burning twice the fat. My kids have definitely noticed a difference in me."

As Rebecca sees it, the Lap Band surgery is a priceless effort, one that has made a difference in her life.

"Just make the appointment," Rebecca adds.
