  1. I desperately need your story if your band didn't work at first.

    dogchambers replied to sdpressl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Hi - I'm having the same difficulty! I was banded on 3/2/10 and I've only lost a bit over 20 lbs. (10 of which I lost before surgery). I have had 5 fills, but had to have an unfill twice, because of pain (too tight). I'm going in tomorrow and will have a slight fill. I hope it works and I don't have to rush in the day after to have it removed. Right now all I feel like I'm doing is dieting and exercising my head off! I feel like crying! I hope things are looking up for you! Please let me know if anything has improved. Thanks! (I'm so glad I saw your comments; I thought I was the only one who was having issues!)
