Thanks for the response.
I definately think the lapband is a great thing! I am just an odd one. I am 5' 10", in '03' b4 banding I weighed 364 lbs. Over a couple years I got down to 158 lbs. Which was amazing!!!!! Well, I quit smoking in Sept. 06, there came 60lbs. then here comes the kicker, I started eating ice cream everyday and I really mean everyday, there came another 40 lbs. and here I am today at 25? lbs. ugh!!!!! I gtg, I will have to get into the why I would want the band removed story later. Thanks:tongue_smilie:
