I'm having my lap band out on 9/28/11. It never worked, and now I feel bad all the time. Cannot wait!!!

I was banded 4-14-08 and am getting my fifth fill tomorrow. I still have no restriction and I'm pretty sure my weigh-in tomorrow will show a gain. I've been gaining and losing the same 3 or 4 pounds for the last 5 or 6 weeks now. I know it can take several fills to reach good restriction, but I'm getting a bit weary. I can eat WAY more than I should, and I know I have to work at this, but if my self-control were all that good, I wouldn't have needed surgery in the first place.Thanks in advance for prayers and support. I'm glad this forum is here.

wow, I know exactly how you feel. I've gained and lost the same 3 pounds for 3 months now. I absolutely agree with you.

OMG, I know your pain. I have the same thing. Since my last fill 2 weeks ago, I;ve started having the same. Plus so much is getting stuck!! I'm going to get some taken out too!

I'm having my lapband out in5 days, I cannot wait; I've been ill with bloating and nausea for the last 2 1/2 months. Can't go out with friends, just feel awful. I've had the
band for exactly 2 years. Never lost weight. Maybe it wasn't ever placed correctly, but it has to GO!!!
