Hi Ronnii - personally I wouldn't put yourself through the misery. He

didn't require me to do it and although I did try just to give myself a

kick start, I failed miserably. I started at 108kg on my scales with

my first appt with him (more on his) and basically doctors only require

you to do it if you have a very fatty liver as it helps when the do the

op to have reduced this. Apparently they can tell from looking at your

outsides, how fatty you are on the inside. Go figure!!! I think

Doctor thinks I'm a problem child since I have only lost 1kg in

about 14 weeks now. The couple lost last week while too tight are back

in place now and I'm eating merrily and not losing anymore - back next

week for fill no 8 to try and get some restriction.

Even with the groaning I do about the band, I would do it all over

again in a heartbeat. It's going to work eventually, albiet slowly and

my renewed health with be my reward.

All the best
