I CAN NOT get back on Track, I have lost Motvation I'm even heavier then I was before & I feel like a complete failure I don't know what to do.....

I feel the same way :-(

Do either of you have any local lap support groups you can attend? Please visit your doctors office and let them know your feelings...

I recommend that you get back to your medical team and tell them with complete honesty how you are feeling and ask for their help. I'll bet that they have had plenty of patients go through your same feelings and I'll also bet that they have tools and systems to help you get back on track.

Motivation is a tough thing to rely on for the rest of our lives. It's great for getting us started and through the difficult pre and post-op periods, but after that, it tends to wane. Better to be looking at a lifestyle change.

Good luck, but don't give up.

Please do not give up. I agree- go visit your doctor's and see what he can do for you both. Maybe you just need a fill to get you going again, or maybe a group would help so that you can talk it out and get help from a few people. God Bless

I feel exactly the same way! I haven't gained back but haven't lost anything besides the initial 31 pounds. I feel like a complete failure too! I've learned to "eat around" the band...

If ur heavier than before you may have some slippage and other issues- go be honest with the doctor- he won't bite ur head off- they want I to have best results u can get!
