How long have you had your lap band?

[MIssy2011 4]

I am only 17 months out. I have lost 110 pounds and cannot imagine life without my band. I have only had a few minor issues with acid reflux, but that only started 3 months ago. I will be able to say in 5 years that I have maintained my weight loss, plus 10 more (which will put me at my Doctors goal), because I do not wont to go back to the old me! I like the new me. : )

I'm just over 4 years. I started at 324 and have been hovering around 180 for about 2 years. I can eat just about anything I want just not a whole lot of it!

I have had my band for 22 months. I have lost 210 lbs with no complications. I am 7 or 17 lbs from goal depending on which day you ask me.

I am 4 yrs out and lost 100 lbs but now Ihave been drinking 1 gallon of chai tea a day and gained back about 30 lbs.I know that a fill won't help me here. Anyone have any suggestions.

Oh,soy chai lattes, mmmmmmmmmm.

Chai is an Indian spice mix, truly yummy, but commercial mixes are full of sugar, a small chai latte is about 200 cls.
