Titanium is only so strong. You can't put it all on the doctors.

To be fair, you'd couldn't dam the Mississippi River with popsicle sticks either.

Behavioral problems start when you don’t comply with the recommendations of lap-band eating, by overeating or making poor food choices. While bad food choices may slow your weight loss or even cause you to gain weight, consequences of overeating may be slightly more serious. In other words, if you eat more than your new stomach can handle you may cause your band to slip. Band slippage is can easily be prevented by not overeating and seeing your doctor when you feel that your eating habits might have reverted back to what they were before the lap-band surgery. If after the X-ray your doctor notices that the upper part of the stomach has stretched, he may decide to deflate your band completely to allow the stomach to shrink back to its original size. This procedure, when performed in a timely manner, will most definitely prevent the slippage and therefore the need for additional surgery. This is also why you should always remember to follow up with your weight loss surgeon and dietitian on a regular basis. Seeing your doctor for periodical checkups will not only keep you on track with your weight, but will also allow the detection of any complications or problems in their early stages.
