About 27 Months Out

Had lap band surgery 6/2010 and I'm down 152 pound with about 20-30 pounds more that I would like to lose. I need a tummy tuck & breast lift (that I think my insurance will cover) and of course I'd love a thigh lift, arm lift.....and face lift. My biggest issue is reflux that just started a month ago....ugh!!!!

Generally reflux is a sign that you are too tight, you may need some fluid taken out. It's really weird and I don't have the explanation but it seems to occur quite often 2 - 3 years out. I had the same thing happen to me earlier this year.

Great results! I am not even a month post op and hearing success after that time period is just what I need to hear... so many people you hear say that banding doesn't work at all but here I feel that it can be successful if worked and used correctly! Hope you feel a little better and way to go!

Wow! How awesome!!! I hope to be at goal within 24 months! Thanks for your story. It's great to hear success stories! I'm just 25 days post-op but these 25 days have flown by!

I had my last fill the first part of June 2012 & the reflux started about 3 weeks ago. It's just weird, it will hit 2....3 am, like anything in my stomach will "wash up". If this keeps up much longer, I'll call my dr.

Yes....I look pretty good....as long as I keep my clothes on!!! Most importantly, I feel so much better!!
