Sorry! It takes a lot more than fills to loose! Good luck!

I have never not drank before during or after. I know I'm a rebel! But successful.

It's a great way to loose weight and feel good about yourself. My son is 41 still said I had my baby weight from him. Lol! I was 18 gained 72 lbs and really fought weight lose ever since! I had the lap band with plication nov 6,2012. Never looked back. Just what I needed. My sister almost 2 years out. We love it! Best of success in whatever you decide. Remember it's all in our head!

My surgery was lap band with placation. Im never really hungry. I am x60 yrs old one. Everyone. It is up to you. I know overweight all my adult life. Bur stay the plan andbyou will lose!

I also have never had a fill. November 6 I wil have been banded 1 year. I reached my goal of 145 in 7 months. But I continued to loose another 10 and then my weight lose just stopped. I started out at 215 so I have lost 80 lbs. My weight fluctuates from 130 to 135. Feel great. Love my lap band with plication. Good luck to everyone on this site.

I'm happy!

I've had great success since nov 2012! Hope to relate to all when I have been banded 5-10 years! Good luck! The old song "we've only just begun"

Congrats! I was banded on the 6 of Nov. No fills! Down to 132 from 217!love my band!

Not seen my surgeon in months(hesucked). It's totally about you and what you want! I can honestly say I have never had any great replies to my comments. But.... Who cares. I will answer and help anyone. I've been there. Donr that! Great success to everyone!

It was tempting. I did drink more than I ate. Lol! But bottom line. I had my surgery 11/6/2012 and I have been so blessed. I had the band with plication never had a fill feel great ! I can't believe it's been almost a year. Best of luck to e eryone. Been there!

Had my surgery Nov 6,2012. I have lost 83 lbs and just went on a 5 day cruise and came hone only gaining 1 lb. Been overweight forever til surgery. Just follow guidelines. You will loose weight! No one ever comments on my posts but whatever! Good luck to all! Been where your at totally understand!

My weight history is so like everyone else! Had first baby at 18 gained 70 lbs(back in the 70's) lost so e weight before having baby2! Gained 72 lbs. Lost weight then baby 3. Yo yo dieted for ever. He's 33 now the baby. Decided it was time for me. I will be 60 on 9/22 and I lost all my weight since 11/6/12. But now all is see is wrinkles. Best of luck to everyone. I watch everything I eat. Love my lap band with p,ication. No fills and don't want any! Get stuck enough already! Eating too fast!

The band is a tool. Brain functions still work. Listen to the band and why you had the surgery!

Good luck to you! You can do it for yourself and children. I say that as I continue to smoke lost all my weight but still trying to kill myself smoking!

Thanks for sharing. We are all on here because we have a eating disorder! My experience so far has been great...but I'm not even a year into it am at goal. It's lots of work from here on out. I'll be sixty soon and I will fight my weight for the rest of my God giving life. Best of luck!

I did the same. Cut it off. Growing back now. Banded nov 6,2012. At my goal but thin hair. No regrets!
