Hey has anyone else found that the Lap Band only works for a short time and then it stops working? I Lost about 65 pounds> I had the Lap Band done March 9th 2009. But now it seems that I have gained all the weight back. I just had a fill March 28th 2011 at the hospital under x-ray. Do I need another fill? Any suggestion will be appreciated greatly

Yes I lost 5 pounds. it's not a lot but it is encouraging me to get back to were I was before I started to gain the weight back. I went and had another fill yesterday. I had one on March 22nd.. Then again on march 28th and then yeaterday may 5th. I am going to do it right this time. You are not supposed to eat after fill for a few days just liquids. I fell hungry sometime after a fill and land up eating things that I should not eat. I don't know if this streches the band out or not but I going to just drink protein shakes for a few days.Lorie G
