I had it? Not in fort worth. I've had no problems. I think it's been a big part of my success with my wt loss

How far out are you? Just curious becaz I'm having mine removed next week. The plication came undone except for a few sutures;(( just wondering if anyone else had this happen

I'm 1 1/2 years out. How did you know it had come loose?

I could eat a lot more and I started having weird stomach pains after eating. I just want this out of me ;(

I've had my band/plication for 19 months without issue. I also feel that the plication is a big part of my success. I liked (and still do) the idea of having two different signals. And my feeling at the time of my decision was, if for some reason I lose the band, I've still got the secondary procedure to help me eat less.

Glad your doing well, I can't wait to get sleeved on tues and get this out of me
