Hi everyone,
Just wanted to stop by and say hi :)
I was originally banded in 2008 by have had some problems with a large pouch and a hernia so as of 25th January I will be newly banded (again) after having my band replaced.

I originally lost 53kg and then put on about 20kg (naughty I know). Now Optifasting before my procedure next week, looking forward to getting back on track.

Hi there!

Well, the majority of your weight stayed off, so I think that deserves a pat on the back! Well Done!
I'm, getting my band on the 16th Feb, and I'm pretty much obsessed with thoughts of it at the moment lol
Good Luck with your op, keep us posted!

Mel.

Hope all went well with the op :)

I am curious to know what caused the large pouch... did the doc put it in the wrong spot??
