Hi I have had my band since 11-06 4 years now and don't regret it at all. My mom has had hers for 3 years and also doesn't regret it. Yes we can't eat certain foods but that is just the way it is. I have lost 81 lbs but also got pregnant so it stopped my loss for a while but now I am back on track and I am at a weight I haven't been at for 17 years so it has been well worth it. Still it is not a quick fix you have to work hard at it. Good luck in what ever you decide. Jenny

Hi, This is my first post. I was banded 11-06 and got pregnant with my 5th son in Sept 2007. No problems getting pregnant always do when I lose weight. I didn't have any problems with the band while pregnant but did have my whole fill taken out at 6 weeks. Gained 30lbs with my pregnancy not bad for me. I had my 4th c-section with him wasn't any different then when I didn't have the band. Good luck more then likely you won't have any problems. Although after the baby get back to your dr as soon as you can and get a fill I gained 20lbs after he was born and I shouldn't have. Jenny
