banded 2-3 or more years

I'm coming up on my three year "anniversary"

has anyone been banded for awhile? It'd be cool to find some people in the same boat as me!

Thanks : )

I will be at 2 years on Sept 30th. I'm getting there slowly. Would love to lose 30 more but would be happy with 20.

i was a lot closer to my goal a year ago, but i gained some weight back. I'm trying to get back on track. I thought I would be at my goal by now, but I'm not going to let that get me down!

Thanks for all the replies : )

It'd be nice to chat with you guys sometime!

How did you did you get yourself back to losing. I am about 2 1/2 yrs. out and lost about 48 lbs., but have slowly gained back about 15 pounds. Very discouraged. Still can't eat much, but seem to be able to gain.

I am just over three years out, lost about 80 pounds and want to lose 40 more. It does get harder with time and I need to get in and get a fill, as I have lost some focus. But I am not gaining, so this is better than any diet I have ever been on. Went from size 24 to 14-16, and basically feeling ten times better.

I am about 2 1/2 years out. Not quite to goal, but maintaining my loss with ease.

Also not sure what I want my goal to be, maybe I am there! I am at a normal BMI and my blood work is good, yay!

3 years on 7/13!!!! lost 155-gained back 20-just got a fill last week 4 pounds down. Love my band but need to keep my focus.

My goal is size 12. Will be back there very soon-They fit, but tighter that I like.:)

My problem is I still have restriction, but I'm not losing anymore. So I don't think a fill would be good for me. So I don't really know why my weight loss stopped.
