I can still be pro band because I have seen it work, and work well for people. My husband is half the guy he used to be. I honestly dont think he would be alive today without it. His boss is finally at goal weight, and super happy. He has had almost no problems. His wife, however, has constant problems.
What is going on with me is not the fault of the band, the surgeon, or even me. It is my body's intolerance to a foreign object.

Just an observation here. I've never heard any stats on it, but in general men seem to lose much better with the band than women.
Men seem to tolerate the band way better then women.On December 14, 2011 at 3:40 PM Pacific Time, Pumpkin X . wrote:

I'm a little puzzled over that one myself!

I'm really sorry your band isn't agreeing with you! I've had my band for 4 1/2 years with no issues. I agree, not eating is NOT the way for weight loss! I hope things get worked out and you feel better!

lost 155 lbs, go me!

There are some folks for whom the band simply just doesn't seem to be compatible. I hope you get relief soon, one way or another.

At my appointment Tuesday the 13th, I weighed in at 20 lbs less than my presurgery appointment November 29th. The doctor said my weight loss was good. Hello, my weight loss is based on starvation and dehydration. I am living on water and an occasional bit of juice. I am an enforced anorexic and he thinks my weight loss is good? I said replied to that, "Who knew, all you had to do is not eat".
He sounds like a jackass.Most Active
