  • Terrific and congrats. I have never regretted my decision to have the lap band. Though I have had a love hate relationship it helps keeps me in line.

It's so great to hear others still LOVE their Band. I don't hate mine and I think it is still working the way it should after 10 years..but I am NOT doing what I should. I have gained a bunch back. makes me very sad. I need to know what you all think of how to get back to what I should be doing. Do you think starting Over..like liquid drinks..protein..ect is a good idea ??
