I guess I never really understood the lap band process. I had gastric bypass 10 years ago and gained half of my weight back. I had the Realize lapband in June and thought I would feel once again like I did 10 years ago....not so. I can eat LOTS. I thought this was an answer to obesity and would help. I initially lost 20 pounds because I ate shakes and soft foods after the surgery, but when I could eat regular food again I went back to old habits and have gained it all back. My band is almost full and I'm still eating and gaining. What is going on? I thought I would NOT be able to eat. Help! Klipspringer
