Pianoman 0 Posted February 3, 2006 I too have the Swedish band, which has been available in the UK for some time. Apparently, it's softer than other bands, and takes a large fill (9cc?), which is ideal for people wishing to lose a large amound of weight (100lbs+).

John Stakes 0 Posted February 3, 2006 Thanks to all of you for getting back to me. Yes I am refering to the Swedish Band .I am having a hard time finding someone in Houston to do the fill. Everyone tells me not until it approve will they consider doing the fills .Taking off work and driving to Mexico will be a little hard to do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Stakes 0 Posted February 3, 2006 MeganA I just had the band put on on 1-9-2006 so I know I am getting close to needing a fill .Any info you can give me about trying to set up a fill would be great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pianoman 0 Posted February 3, 2006 Hey Pianoman...how are you? Looks like you're doing well!Megan Hi, Megan! I'm fine, thanks for asking. The band is working well, and I'll soon have the physique of a racing snake! :bananajump: Well, maybe not, but it's gonna be worth it in the end. We've the same band, eh? What are the odds?
