The band was the right decision for me. Only you can decide if it is the right decision for you. I chose the band because it was less risky than the other options. It provides a slower weight loss. It does not cause malabsorbtion or dumping issues. The band can be removed if I need or want it removed.

Some disadvantages: stuck episodes, possiblity of a slip or erosion, frequent and life long aftercare.

Research, research and more research. Talk with your surgeon. Make the right decision for you.
