Help, band/balloon???

[treaco]

Hi everybody, ive been trying to diet for about 7 years had ups and downs with various diets. I have been reading up on the band and the balloon.

think balloon good idea but would be terrified about puting weight back on after it came out

Really would like the band as its permanent, was just wondering what symptoms are like after and healing etc also the foods like bread meat etc are you able to eat them again at some point or are they always a no no?

sorry for long post but any help greatly appreciated

Hi Treaco, I know what you mean about the balloon. I'm a bander and I had a very good recovery period. I can eat meat as long as I chew it well and I can also eat bread but only half of slice if I'm careful and its toasted. There are some foods some people can't tolerate but every one is different so you may be able to eat something others can't. Its a trial and error with most foods.xxx
