Your story is so similar to mine. My band hadn’t slipped it just didn’t work. I gained all of my weight back and then some. My band was removed in Oct 2017. I was sleeved 5/22/18 and the recovery process has been really painful so far. I had a lot of scar tissue that had to be removed. I worry about not loosing but trying to stay positive.
I was banded in 2012. I have not had any success with it at all. The first 6 weeks I lost 20 pounds but every since it's been a struggle. I am now above my start weight and miserable. I am wanting to do a revision surgery but I don't even know where to start. I don't really like my doctor but I guess I am going to have to start with him.
