Hey All, newto this site!!

Hi, I was banded 03/27/06 and started at 402lbs...I made it all the way down to my lowest of 299lbs BUT in the past year, i have managed to gain and now I am at 325lbs. I have not been able to see a lapband doctor where I currently live (Florida). I moved from NYC last june and that was the last time I have seen a doctor for my lapband. So, I know I am in need of a fill but here in FL it seems that if they didn't operate on you, they don't want to deal with you. The only place is FillCenterUSA but right now its too much for me to spend. My surgery was done at NYU by Dr. Feilding. I miss his office staff!!

Hey Malz, the new fill situation sucks!! However, you have had tremendous success so far. You are kicking ass.....so don't up. Time to get started again. Have you ever attempted the 5 day "pouch" test? That might be a good start to help you re-find the amount you should be eating.

So, eat good food in the right portions, and don't forget to exercise, exercise, exercise!!! You can do it!!
