A probably totslly unnecessary reminder!
On your wedding day, you will be stressed, excited, chatting while eating, having a few drinks. A recipe fir disaster! Even if your band is not tight,
Be VERY mindful! Last thing you want is to have to rush to the bathroom and return red-eyed with streaked mascara!
have a great day!!

As Hislady says - don't worry now!!!
As to whether it matters long term, that may depend on your current situation. If you are happy with your current weight and restriction, you don't need fills so it doesn't matter. My last fill was in 2007! But if you do need more fills, then it may matter! The only way I know to reposition a tilted port is by surgery, but I wouid guess it is not a major operation.

There is no 'shouid". We need adjustments as and when fat under the band decreases. For some this happens quickly, for some slowly. Some people have a lot of internal far, some have very little. And once all the internal fat has gone, the band shouid theoretically not need adjusting.

I realize I have not had my lap-band adjusted in about 2 years. Is that normal? I am happy with my eating/weight so haven't felt the need for it to be tighter or looser. How often should it get adjusted? Yes, I could call my surgeon, but his office is closed tonight!
