lapband failure.

I had my band 3 years ago. I started out at 265 and in the first few months I lost 50 pounds. Great huh? Except 3 years later I feel I can eat almost as much as before and have started to gain it back. I think I have quite a bit of fill but I am too embarrassed to go back :( Does anyone have any suggestions to get me back on track? I went for a walk today and drank more water. I also work nights and find it very hard on the diet. I'm either eating to stay awake or just eating the wrong things. I need support from fellow lap band members!!

Maybe the 2 pounds was water weight during your pouch test. Gaining back 2 after losing 10 in a short amount of time isn't bad at all. Glad for you!

You can do it, Tory! Best wishes and see your doctor. Mine, I know, has heard it all!
