Ive had a gastric band and had nothing but trouble and heartache. Wish id gone dien the permanent route.
Some people are negative about bariatric surgery, but modt have no idea what a struggle life can be as a yoyo dieter getting nowhere.
Wish you all the best with your journey and your new life 😊

Jealous of you girls having bypass. Wish i could turn back the clock. Had my band 7 months, lost nothing, been in 3 times for various ops and now in again as port has flipped.
Well done you lot on making a better decision than me!

Rumblytummy - have you had your band checked? Maybe you need more restriction .....

Now my port has flipped so another op soon.
I had mine done private too. May as well have put £5k in the bin.
Would love a bypass or sleeve .

An extra £11k for a sleeve ad they charge for taking band out too. And a wasted £5k.

Looks like we need to pray for a lottery win ... I can't believe your bad luck! I'd heard bad things - more bad than good for bands - I was still keen - but it was the surgeon who suggested the bypass ... It's a better solution - I really hope you guys can get one soon x

Ive had 2 barium xrays that apparently show no leak. ( again i refused to pay) Somethings not right at all. If you bought an item for £5k from a shop, they wouldnt just tell you these things happen and its one of the risks with what you've bought!
Im fed up, drained and just about given up hope if being slim.
