My band DID SLIP!

wELL, I got my slipped band repositioned a few months ago. I had severe reflux and difficulty more with water than food, before my repair. The recovery for the band slip was very easy.

 

Now, I would like to lose some more weight, but since I now have no difficulty eating, like I did when my band was slipped, I'm having trouble staying away from food!

 

I have to make better food choices. I have lost over 75 pounds. So, how can I not be grateful for this band. Even though it is costing a small fortune, I'd do it again.

 

I'm doing some research for a tummy tuck or panniculectomy. I have this band and the tummy tuck would involve them sewing my port back in place, I think? I mean, they cut the muscle in the stomach, and my port is sewn to the muscle right now. Anyone have a tummy tuck and have port issues out there?
