  1. Post surgery hunger?

    jo ann replied to Scottinnh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I wasn't hungry after surgery, it didn't take much to feel comfortable which was a first in my lifetime when i didn't want to eat all the time. However, after surgery you have to be careful, no body ever mentioned to me about the new small pouch stretching and it will, just like your stomach did originally to gain weight, the pouch will stretch. Mine has and now i've gained back all my weight, plus problems with my stomach.

  2. Regained

    jo ann posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    I HAD MY LAB BAND DONE IN 06, LOST ABOUT 65 POUNDS IN THE FIRST EIGHT MONTHS, EVENTUALLY LOST ABOUT ANOTHER TEN BEFORE I STARTED GAINING THE WEIGHT BACK. HAS ANYONE ELSE REGAINED THEIR WEIGHT WITH THE LAP BAND IN TACT?:purplebananna:
