  1. Surgery 03/2013 280lbs I've managed to gain back all my weight. I do not feel restrictions when I eat anymore. Possibly medication related. Possible bad habits returned. I bit the bullet and called the WL clinic because I don't know what options are available in my area. I've done all kinds of research. Nurse told me they rarely do any revisions and never have done a band over gastric (I was really wanting that) She mentioned possible medical weight loss such as appetite suppressants etc... I would rather have a surgery than to take any weightloss pills with side effects.I am wondering if any of you who had a regain have gotten any medical weightloss options that worked?

  3. No belts or anything of the sort. On the trip home I wore a simple sleek skirt on purpose just to eliminate and clothing bunching possibility. But it still happened

  7. I flew for the first time since losing 145lbs. Going thru the full body scan it alerted to my stomach/groin area. I had to have a full pat down in that area. This is the area with the most lose and extra skin. My stomach hangs out like an over stuffed fanny pack. I didn't mind the pat down because I appreciate airport security when I'm going to be on a plane. So I'm just assuming my skin and fat in that area are the reason I was flagged both times. Anyone else experience this or other things at the airport and suspect it was your extra skin?
