1. Overall, was it worth it?
2. How much weight did you lose?
3. How much did it cost - any covered by insurance?
4. Were you warned about the possible slippage of the band?

6. Did you learn anything about your previous weight gain from this experience that is going

7. Would you recommend it to others?
