hello everyone,
I would like some opinions. I am a huge supporter of a particular charity and organise fund raising events for them several times a year. As I am about to embark on this journey to change my life forever and aim to loose 7 and half stone I thought this was a great opportunity to raise more money as a sponsored weight loss. Now we all know how hard you need to work to get the best out of a band, however I think the general perception of others is that it's the easy way out.
Therefore my question(s) is this: Is it acceptable to use a gastric band and ask for sponsorship for a good cause? Futhermore if I choose to use my weightloss as a fundraiser do I have to tell all those that sponsor me that I have a band fitted?
Thanks for your comments.
