I have been saying for the last year I need to get one but I still haven't yet. (yeah, I know, I'm procrastinating foolishly)

For now, I have my Lap Band ID card right behind my license. I figure this way if I'm in an accident and they go for my ID they'll see that Lap Band card too.

Never thought about it. Great idea!

i have a bracelet that i bought and wear...since losing weight, its kinda big but i like it alot

I think this is a great idea but unfortunately I don't have one. I don't even have a LapBand ID card which I will talk to my doctor about. I did, however, google medical ID cards and I found a website that I was able to fill in my information in and I printed it out and put it with my license and insurance cards. It lists on there that I have LapBand and it helped put me at ease. Just a suggestion :)

thats such a great idea! I wear one daily for my laytex allergie.. look like it's time to update!

What does the bracelet look like exactly? Can you take it off if you wanted to?
