Several of you effectively scared me!

Ummmm.....ok?

Keep working that band Brock as long as you aren't having problems with it there is no reason to worry. Mine never did really work and because of insurance issues I can't get it removed but I still eat bandster style even tho my band is empty and have managed to maintain. So keep on keepin' on, you can do it!

I don't want to scare anybody with a band.  Use it if you got it.  Just beware and if something should pop just make sure you jump on it.

I like that------"Use it if you got it".

Keep up the newly rededicated attitude, Brock

I would totally keep my band if I were in your shoes. In fact, I cried like a baby when my dr told me that it had to go. I would only remove it if I was having medical complications, as I believe that you always have to weigh the pros and cons for every surgery, since there is always risk involved.

Love your band, girlfriend. {{HUG}}

You know I'm a man, right?

Oops....so sorry, I guess I was on auto pilot.  Is this better....pound it here! 

Um, OK (PS...guys don't say that).
