  2. Don't let my mistake discourage you. I have no regrets about getting the lap band. It's not going to do all the work on its own. I fell off the path. I got complaisant. We're all human. With all this encouragement it's getting me excited about getting my life back. Good luck.
  3. I live pretty far from my doctor and my insurance co-pay went up quiet a bit. That's why I haven't been in to get a fill. Now I'm the only one working. My husband got laid off. I've been so miserable though, I'm gonna have to figure something out. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement. I'll stay in touch. Now that I've put it all out there i have to do something about it. Lol
  4. Hi, I'm new here. I've been banded since 2007. I lost about 86 lbs and got pregnant. Gained some back. After I got back on track I started having bad heart burn issues, so my doc took everything out of my band. I'm embarrassed to say, I've gained it ALL back. I've been beating myself up so much about it that I've talked myself out of going to get a fill because I'm too embarrassed to have my doc see me like this. I'm feeling hopeless, just like I did before I got my lap band. I hope someone out there has been through this and can help get me out of this rut.
