Fobi Ring

I had my gastric bypass surgery 3 months ago and was just wondering if anyone else had the fobi ring fitted?

    What's a fobi ring?

    Sweet

    It's a silicone ring they put at the opening of your stomach to stop ur stomach stretching back at a later date, i paid more money to have it fitted x

    Wow! I would have liked to get that.

    Sweet

    Yer, apparently the normal gastric bypass has a success rate of about 70% and a fobi pouch has 90%
