Lapband finale

[Corrigan 75]

While I’m sitting here waiting to go, I was wondering what happens to the lapband when you have reached your weight goal. Does it just sit there and help you maintain, will it cause problems later in life? I’m sure it varies for each person, but I’d like to hear from someone who has had the experience.

You can have it removed if you want but I don't know why anyone would. I plan on going to the grave with mine.

Thanks Cindy, I was just wondering if they might deteriate with age.

Fair question and I don't know the answer. I'm assuming that somewhere along the way the technology will improve or something will happen and it will need to be replaced. No way, after all this hard work, would I want to go five minutes without it.

When it works it is a wonderful thing....even if I have to self pay I can never go back to being unbanded or whatever the current technology is if I needed to change.

I think I'm going to put it in my will that it goes with me. I don't want to get fat in heaven.
