LAP-BAND Patients

In January of 2001, my life was transformed when I had gastric bypass surgery.  Ten years later, after some very stressful times in my life, I found that I had gained back almost 60 of the 165lbs I lost.
I knew I had to do something...
So I called Dr. Liu's office about a revision, and he suggested I add a lap band, due to the flexibility AND control, all at the same time.  
I'm about a week post op, and besides being a bit hungry at times, and feeling the port (which is odd!), I've been doing great!
