For those of you who had done lap band surgery... (please only respond if you personally had it done)
would you do it again now that you know what you feel like, what the side effects are, and now that you see results?
If your insurance didnt cover, and it cost you 16,000 would it still be the right choice for you?

I wouldn't think twice.

Although I had a hard time with the band and never thought I could do it over again, I did. A couple of months ago, my band slipped. The only option was surgery. They needed to remove the band. When they asked me if I wanted to replace it, I didnt bat an eyelash when I reponded "YES". Dont get me wrong. Being banded is hard. But not being banded for me is harder. Hopefully I will have an easier time this time around
