Hi everyone

I was banded 4 years ago and lost 6 stone but unfortunately my port twisted and I couldn't get a proper fill. I recently had an operation to replace my port with a new one. It was badly damaged from them trying to get the needle into the port to give me a fill. I put back on nearly 2 stone cos I wasn't getting proper restriction. I feel like I'm starting all over again :-(

Hi Kellyer I am guessing u are English by the stone reference a stone is how many pounds? I would love to say my weight in stones the number is so much smaller:) good luck with everything

Keep us all posted on how you are doing with your new band/port. How long ago did you have it done? Are you able to keep things down? Are you still on a liquid diet? Best of luck from the States

Hi I'm from Ireland 

I had my band fitted 4 years ago in Belgium. It's much cheaper over there. It costs €14000 in Ireland but only €4500 in belgium.

At the moment I have 7mls in my band and have hardly any restriction. Getting another fill on the 7th of june. It costs me €120 per fill
