Reducing fill levels for travel

[Guest guest]

,

I jsut wanted to ask about the point you raise about having your band

emptied when you went overseas. Did you have 1.5 mls and go to nothing for

the trip or did you have 1.5 mls for the trip? I'm just not sure from your

message. We are currently planning to go to the US & Canda for about 9

weeks later this year (I'm currently planning locations/legistics and

transport--so I can go and talk sensibly to an agent). I am considering

what to do. I plan to discuss it with the doctor this year sometime. I

have contemplated getting half out. I have lost about 36.5 kilos now, I

have about 14 k to doctor's goal and then I'd like to get to 80 which would

be another 16. Your experience of 4 kilos doesn't seem too bad.

I would appreciate the thoughts of anyone else you has experience or thought

on this topic.

Nadia
