It's really THIS topic that most newbies don't realize is going to be the issue. Losing is easy. The surgery does a lot of the work. BUT...several years out is when the work needs to be done by you and your choices.
Yes this is a lifelong thing. For me, I chose an eating style that was very easy to follow, lost all of my regain and committed to staying the course. The weight doesn't just automatically stay off. And yes, the further out your are the more likely you are to struggle.
If you've fallen off track the best thing is to just see the doc, see the Nut, attend a support group, etc. This helps get you back on track. And start logging food, Water, movement, etc. You got this!
I had the band done in 2009- I lost 40pds but gained back 10-15 up and down- it was awful the band was never right either too tight or too loose- I just had a band to sleeve revision done- the band is such a failure I didn't think a lot of doctors still would suggest it
