XPost life expectancy of the band

I remember seeing those words when I researched back in 2003. 

But that was Inamed. I'm not sure Allergen chose to share that same info. I do remember saying that I thought I could lose all my excess weight within a 10 year period, so it didn't bother me that they were saying I'd have to have it removed in 10 years. Of course, I never made it anywhere near that 10 year mark, so the point was moot.
