Hello.....I've been banded since 2010 lost 60lbs and have gained about 47lbs back. Soooooo now revision it is.  I really am not happy about going under again, not to mention the pain, but I really don't want to be overweight again either and it's so unhealthy.

I'm turning 50 on the 25th so this is a gift to me.......a healthier ME!!!

I had my revision in August, and I have to say, I don't miss that crap band at all. I am so much happier, have lost the 60 lbs I regained with my band, and then some, have no acid reflux, never have thrown up, and never feel like there is food in my throat. I just cannot say enough about how different this weight loss tool is. And I am 55. You'll do great. Would love to keep in touch and see how your journey goes. When is your surgery scheduled?

That's really good to hear. I'm scheduled for February. 26th. I didn't expect things to move so fast, so I'm excited but nervous too. Let's keep in touch!

I was banded at 252 and Revised at 265... the most I ever lost was 27 pounds with the band and gained it and then some.  Revision was the best decision ever!!!

Congratulations on doing something fantastic for your up and coming 50th!  I hope you are as happy with your revision as I am - the difference between the two tools is amazing!  Good luck to you on your new journey!

That is awesome. Was it as painful for you as I've read for some others?
