Dr. Dahiya:
With the LAP-BAND®, the weight loss is slower. It probably takes twice that much to lose. So if you have LAP-BAND®, then you got to be patient as far as the time-frame is concerned. But that’s a rough guide, and I don’t tell my patients that you have to sort of take it to such a guideline, that well, if you didn’t lose or lose too much, then that’s a matter of concern because men lose faster, women lose little less. And everybody is an individual, and there are some variations in that.
