    Awesome. I had my 'installed' on June 28th. I have lost 18 pounds since then. With the 35 I had lost prior to surgery - a whopping 53.

    Hi I have been fitted with a hypnotic Gastric Band. (do you think this counts ) I have had it for 4 weeks, have lost 6 kg (13lbs) and best of all 22inches (55,88cms) off my measurements. Which includes 4 inches off my waist. I have dropped a whole dress size and have been on a total high all month. Does anyone else here have the hypnotic version ?

    never heard of it, but sounds pretty interesting... I know I have had hypnosis for other conditions and it worked for me! So if it is working for you! That is fantastic!
