Gained All Weight Back

It happy at all. 5 years out and I gained my weight back. I'm at capacity on my band even a little over. How are you all doing? Any suggestions? My doctor even seemed surprised that I haven't had any complications and surprised I can drink water do fast at the new fill.

Sorry I can't make any suggestions, just newly banded myself. But if you don't mind me asking, are you not eating per the plan? Are you eating over the 1 cup portions 5-6 times a day?

Yes I would want to know has your pouched stretched out and did you not get a fill when you were suppose to get it and that might be why you gained the weight?

Hi Ravenesquedv-

I'm 4.5 yrs out so I really empathize --- however---I think we need more info to help you think about this. For example, I'm wondering if you had a high BMI vs a low BMI when you started. And I'm really wondering if you lost all of or most of your excess weight before gaining it back. If you lost a lot --- how long did you keep it off before gaining? I ask because -- there could be a bunch of different things that are causing the problem and it's hard to make suggestions if we don't know more about your situation.
