Recommended Posts

So you've made your goal weight, exceeded your goal weight, had PS to correct any sagging, happy, healthy and forever committed to eating right and exercising. Free surgeries are being offered to REMOVE your band, do you take it out, do you leave it in and why.

i would keep mine because i can still eat a whole box of girl scout Cookies with out thinking about it...and will if you leave them near me...do you have some dan??

Alas I do not, I have dumped all the good stuff in advance so I can get results like you have.

Definitely would keep mine just to avert the binge temptations. I could eat box after box of girlscout Cookies. Damn I love those thin mints!

I might end up getting a partial unfill when I get to goal just so I can have some foods that I can't right now.

that's what i've been doing brad. finding the least amt of fill needed for maintenance. no food/drink is off limits right now & don't plan to change/fix what's not broken....keeping the band for as long as i can.

NEVER EVER have that removed. It removed my hunger... without it, the weight would come right back. If I were to have band issues and need it removed, I'd immediately revise to a sleeve. No questions.
