Iluvyogi 4 Posted March 1, 2012 Surgery date is March 16. Starting to have second doubts whether I shoul go through with it. Currently lost 44 pounds on my own and feel that I can stay on that path yet...I always regain it all back plus an extra 30-40. It's been my pattern for 20 years. I really hope that the band will help me keep the weight off for good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
