Everyone journey is different, I had the lapband and did very well. then had problems with acid reflux and removal of all fills. then regained and now having a revision to bypass, on 16 September talk any concern through with your surgeon it's about getting the right surgery for you x

My partner is not big on compliments new clothes are fine or ok but sometimes he notices small things but he not changed just our expectation have. Try a quiet word about how you feel x

It's been quite a journey so far successful band surgery 2012 then problems with my band and weight regain all bar 30lb. I am on the pre op diet of lean Protein and no more than 40g of carbs.

Thank you really looking forward to no more slimming. hard work right now as all the Fluid was taken out my band yesterday. So it's all up to my until mid August x

That's the best option to speak to your surgeon for the best option for you but it's exciting x

Hi I am in the UK also go to see my surgeon on the 16th hope to have a date for my band to bypass revision. As my phyc. Evaluation went well think it will be end of August. Hang on to the main prize the liquid diet is hard x but you can do this ????think of the little dresses x

Will update thread after the appointment on Tuesday with the surgeons thoughts : ).

You are 20 pounds away from your goal, why would you need bypass or sleeve. That seems like a terrible recommendation. If the bad slipped they should be able to go in and put it back on.

Yes team thought I had 8.5 in my band pulled all Fluid out to check restriction and only had 6.5 I also started to put on weight 50lb The team then refilled to 8,5 and was instantly too tight so removed a little now restriction varies tight am loose pm that when sent for new swallow test and it showed no restriction Iam in the uk and my surgeon does not do bands now. Booked to see the full team on Monday

New post put up

Just back at dietician to see how I have gotten on from last fill and was also sent for swallow test. He had reviewed the test shows no restriction and he can't see my band back to surgical team on Tuesday advised to start to think about conversation to either sleeve or by pass Has anyone had a slipped band? If so what happened next?

6lb off was hoping for more but happy as had a fill on Tuesday and feel restricted Daily calls dropped from 1500 to 900 struggling to get 60g Protein in x roll on June ????

Good luck today x
