Ugh, sorry to hear you're struggling.

Can you share your journey with us? Highest weight, weight at lapband, weight now? What made you choose the band?

Sure, i was 22 stone when i started in aug 2014 my weight came off slowly as i had a few tummy bugs and my fill had to be taken out then put back in. The lowest i got to was 14 stone 9 in aug 2018 now im back up to 16 and half stone. Dont always feel restricted as pouch must be stretched. My port is also in my breast bone, i was not aware it was going there until after the op was done, i was told it would be in my side. It is annoying being in my breast bone & is nudged quite easily. I really want another fill & more weight to come off. I have loose skin on my arms, back & tummy which effects me greatly.
