Hello I am right with you I was banded March 2013 and as of today ( went for a full) I gained 22 pounds. I was nervous and embarrassed however my doctor was great gave me a list of no no foods and wants me to do today and tomorrow liquid only and Thursday/Friday mush foods. He wants me back on 4 weeks and said I should make progress, you can do better yet we can do it
So today was the day I am up 22 pounds the staff was great and I'm all set to take control. Next appointment is in 4 weeks I'm excited to report back a drop in pounds wish me luck.
Hello I was banded in May of 2013 and was doing great until I got stuck and had to go to the hospital. My doctor told me he wanted to see 5 pounds back on as I had not eaten in 10 days. Well since then May 2014 I just can't get back on track I stared at 350 and was down to 268. I have not weighted myself in months but would guess I'm back up to at least 280 or more. I have not had a fill in a very long time and just made an appointment for next Tuesday I'm so embarrassed to go back and have gained so much weight and embarrassed to have been banded and still be fat. How do I get back on track and make this band work for me. Help please
