Dislodge

Would something like a water ride or roller coaster dislodge the band?

      Nah. You're not going to do anything externally to mess up your band.

      As long as you are far enough out from your surgery that you have healed, you should be ok! Sounds fun!

    Good question, but as long as you are healed and there isn't any pressure on your stomach you should be fine. I went on water rides this past weekend and didn't have any issues.
