Travel is very difficult on my band. Fluids mostly. Protein bars. I would not recommend a fill anytime near a flight. Just me


I never had any troubles could eat what I wanted while I was there only after trip back home band tighten and I lost 40 extra lbs. over a couple of months. I loved it Drs did not.

I took round trip to UK more than a year a ago come home and Band was so tight Dr recommended and an complete unfill PLEASE do not do it. It you get too tight just take a small amount out at a time until you lose some weight NEVER to a complete unfill biggest mistake of my Band life still searching for what I had before.

I was down to 119 lbs and now back up to 155 lbs and working my way back up in fill again. They refuse to fill you back up like you were it is very slow going. It is like starting over again. Hate it. Don't do it!!!
