Has anyone gone to mexico for lap-band?
If you ask me: Because they can Everyone must get a piece of the pie in the US so they charge more In MX or overseas, you pay the Doctor & he pays any fees out of his pocket. (use of Hospital, product, assistance from others...)

To Mexico or not to Mexico that is the question!
I went there and am super happy! I was worried at first too but once I made up my mind I did it! I started with a low BMI & I had the same problems with eatting & diets.... Please email me if you need more info redbonela@aol.com I live in LA

How often do you weigh yourself
I never weigh myself, I do not want to discourage myself. I determine weight loss by the fit of my clothes.

Self-Fill are you doing this?
It is so refreshing to see this post and with 7 pages!!! Yes it is a serious subject but there are some out there that may consider this... Why not make light of it and educate them at the same time? Please don't ask if they are serious anymore.... Kudos to the comedians!

How often do you vomit/PB?
I've had 2 small fills since my unfill & believe I am at great spot right now without the complications. I'm glad I did it.

October 2009 Surgery Date?
I had done what I never wanted... an unfill. Oh well, I was too tight & I didn't want any compications so I had 1 cc taken out. I've had 2 fills since then I believe I am at a normal healthy sweet spot. I was worried they would take too much out & they did... But I am back on track now and am still happy!

How often do you vomit/PB?
I can't agree enough! I was having problems but thought in the long run it would be worth it since I was practically throwing everything up & not consuming calories... Thank godness I had a slight infill, it's like magic all the uncomfortness went away!!! No slipage, might have streatched my pouch a little, but I was told it would return to normal after the swelling goes down. I can eat anything & still feel full after a normal portion. I will return next month for maybe .1 cc or .15 end the end, listen to your body. It tells you when something is NOT NORMAL. Good luck to all!!!
