What I like about this particular type of weight loss surgery is that it is a gradual process. Restriction is done over a series of fills and so the amount and type of food you are able to eat is reduced over a period of time. It also means the weight loss is slower but at a constant pace, which I believe is a healthier way for your body to lose weight.

In brief having this band fitted was the best thing I have ever done from a psychological and a health point of view. I urge anyone who is thinking of or who has a band fitted to contact me through Avon Obesity Service. I have so much more to say that this letter is just not long enough.

By January 2006 I had lost 8 stone and my hip replacement took place. I set myself goals to reach and allowed myself little treats as I went down from one stone to the next. I still need my CPAP machine at the moment, but no longer need sticks. Looking back, it has been worth it.

I read an article in a magazine about gastric banding and made enquiries in my area. The closest hospital to me was the Spire hospital in Bristol; it was there I was introduced to Sharon and the team. From that moment on everything was clear. I wanted this more than anything.
Larissa McConkey
I had a BMI of 46 the day I had my surgery; three fills later, 36kg down and my BMI is 31.6. It has been a slow but steady process; I am now down from a size 28 clothes to a size 16 and my weight loss journey is not over yet.
Mac Hardiman
I now weigh 122 kgs and have lost 106 kgs so far on my journey. I have never felt so well and can now walk long distances which I could not have done before. I cannot thank the AOS Team enough where without their help and understanding I could not have done this as they have given me my life back.
