Iw as banded in 2/2004 and up untill this year I haave had no problems. I weighed 308 lbs and basically keep my weight at 178 lbs for all these years up untill now. About 4 months ago I basically loss my appetitie, I have struggled to eat what I should but it is difficult, the only thing I have any desire for is chocolate milk. I now weigh 149 lb ( 30 lb loss in 4 months) additionally I have become anemic. I am on iron pills. I have another appointment with the doctor on Monday. Has any one else experienced any thing like this ?
