Still Considering

[Davyna 0]

Hi all-

I've been reading your website and some other information and I'm scared a bit of course but encouraged by all of your successes!

I just had a couple of questions that I haven't seen specific answers to... I'm sure they are out there somewhere but here goes-

1) Is a lap-band permanent? I've read that it is "long-term," and I see ppl here with 2+ yrs, but I wasn't totally sure.

2) What happens when you reach your goal weight? I guess you get a fill or unfill that keeps you at your goal weight, assuming the lap-band stays in?

3) Are there any foods that you have found that, for whatever reason, you just absolutely can't eat anymore? And why heh... I'm curious what happens if you eat these foods (I've read that vomiting, diarrhea etc. can occur and I'm curious how often this happens... only when you eat these foods or just whenever or what?)

Thanks in advance for any help and congratulations to those who have found what they are seeking.
