  1. Thanks for your reply. Were you able to get insurance to cover RNYGB? Also is your surgeon assuring you this is going to last. I have two friends who had the RNYGB and both gained their weight back?
  2. I am about to have my band removed and I am petrified my old way of feeling and thinking about food. Before my band I was preoccupied with food thoughts. I wanted to eat all the time. I was constantly planning what to eat next even when I was eating. I was beating myself up for eating too much. I was sneaking food. I hated myself for lack of will power. With the band I stuck to my eating plan with no problem. Sometimes I would even forget to eat. How has band removal effected other people emotionally and psychologically?
