Well let's see...I got my lap band done back in June 26, 2008 and lost about 60 pounds until Jan 2009 when I found out I was pregnant with my 2nd child. It was probably a blessing that I had the band and lost that weight because I was having alot of difficulty getting pregnant the 2nd time around and once I lost some weight it was much easier..which of course I had always been told by many dr's as well. After I had my daughter I had my band refilled and was losing weight again but then once again got pregnant 3 months after I had my last baby. Sooooo..now that my tubes are tied and I'm done having babies and have my band refilled..I seem to be really struggling with losing any weight at all. In the beginning I had no problem losing weight about 10 pounds a month, give or take. I wasn't exercising, just watching my portions and it was awesome!! I loved my band..now It seems after all my fills being taken out due to childbirth and also when flu season comes around..my band has never been the same. It is extremely frustrating to me because I started at about 290 pounds and I am currently at 250lb. I would like my goal weight to be 160lb and it just seems soooo far away. I really need to get my head back into the game and start exercising and watching what I eat..but it's very hard to do when you don't see much results. Anyhow, I have always been glad that I got my band and other than a few minor problems with overfills, I have always been very happy with my band up until now.
